Hey All,
I'm looking at a major system upgrade. I'm going to need to get a new case, new mobo, new RAM, and a new CPU... This system will be used for light gaming, LAN Parties, and video editing. I have these objects currently in my cart:
ASPIRE X-Dreamer II Silver ATX Mid-Tower Case with 350W Power Supply, Model "ATXB4KLW-AL/350" Case
Mushkin 184 Pin 512MB DDR PC-3200 - Retail--RAM
ASUS "P4P800-E Deluxe" i865PE Chipset Motherboard for Intel Socket 478 CPU -RETAIL --Motherboard
Intel Pentium 4/ 3.0C GHz 800MHz FSB, 512KB L2 Cache, Hyper Threading Technology - Retail--Processor
I was wondering primarily if the case(specifically the PSU) is of good quality and if the RAM, which has a CAS latency of 2.5-4-4 is better than some Kingston which has a latency of 3-3-3. I will be purchasing 2 sticks of either to run 1GB dual channel. This whole purchase is $40 over my budget($500), so I would be waiting until I have enough $$ until I could buy it. I have the option of downgrading to a 2.8GHz Processor and saving those $40, but I think I'll just stick it out and wait... If you suggest another case, could you keep it from newegg and under $60(with PSU)? Thanks a ton!
