I'm planning on getting a new rig, please review and comment on my stuff! Note I am going to be using my current 7900 gt video card until I get an 8800 or better in the near future. I am also going to be using my 74 gb raptor hard drive, cd drive and floppy drive from my current computer.
Case: Antec P180b
Power: Seasonic 550 HT (should I get the 650 for only $20 more?)
CPU: E6600
Mobo: Abit AW9D-Max (what's the difference between the non max version? From what I can tell, it is $30 cheaper and only lacks Quad core support. Should I consider it instead?)
Ram: Corsair XMS2 DDR2 800/PC2 6400 (is this a good brand for my mobo? And is it high enough speed to do modest overclocking?)
CPU cooler: zalman CNPS9500 (Is this cooler, with its 90mm fan quiet enough for a silent pc, or should I get the even bigger 110mm fan version instead?)
