Rule #1, don't skimp on your case. Would you buy a $2000 rifle and put it in a $20 case? No, so don't do it with all your expensive parts. A case must cool effectively, hold all your components, be nominally quiet (Avoid Antec P180) and be ready for upgrades and overhauls. It must be easy to access your components and handle future upgrades (BTX and beyond)
Spend the extra cash, go for the 800GTX. Also avoid EVGA, XFX is superior and usually comes overclocked (and has a 3x lifetime warranty)
GTX: 128 Pixel pipes
GTS: 96 Pixel pipes.
WORTH IT!
Imaging never having to skimp on graphics settings.
Drop the G.Skill, go with Corsair, it is by far the best quality bang for the buck in memory, remember to use XMS.
DON'T BUY LITE ON ANYTHING! Go with Sony, the price delta is sub $15.00
Seagate used to be the best when it came to HDD's. WD took their crown about a year ago.
Wanna be the 1st on a server EVERY game? Spend some cash on a good HDD. The 10K drives from WD are as nice as it gets.
