This is my first AMD system in a very long time, after looking around and having information overload I have come up with the base system. I wanted to run it by you guys to see if I missed a possible snafu.
ASUS A8N-E
eVGA 256-P2-N518 Geforce 7800GT
Athlon 64 X2 4400+
OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Platinum Model OCZ4002048ELDCPE-K
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Platinum
Antec TruePower 550 watt (though mine is a V1 I think and looks to have 20 pins)
A couple seagate SATA drives and one WD EIDE drive (system)
I want/expect this system to OC to 2.4GHz but 2.5-2.6 would be great though I am not inclined to swap heat sinks and do tons of tweaking to get past 2.4. But 2.4 is a requirement.
I do a good bit of gaming but CPU performance with multithreaded apps is most important.
