Glad I gave you a laugh then. I don't think I said anything incorrect have I? When comparing AMD and Intel cpu don't compare them by the core speeds.

Its pretty simple really, XP processors are better for gaming, VIA chipsets DO have compatibilty problems with hardware, just b/c you have your own "company" doesnt make you an expert.  But I guess its a good way to make a sale

I see it wasn't just me that thought he made a sales pitch. About the VIA chipset is it the whole KT family? I do agree that XP cpus are better for gaming for various different reasons. I would go into it but its a lot of reasons. But the Intel will do the same but why pay more when you can get it cheaper? Go with the 2500. Its cheaper than the 3200 and get the same results in performance.  As for the power supply. As snapper said 350 is enough.

Hummm, looks to me like Moil is offering help based on his professional experience, not asking for a sale.

But that is just how I read it.

Wasn't the sale pitch part that bother me. Just he said 90 percent of you don't know what your talking about. And just because he has a bussiness dosen't mean he is a "professional" And if he is, he should feel bad instead of critizing people he should correct them instead. Looks good Jay. How long before you get it up and running? Want to see what type of frames rates you get.

im curious as to why the 3200+  it only has a slight edge over a 2500+ oced to 11x200  which is 2.2ghz and they only cost 80 bucks .

as for a mainboard i use the asus  a7n8x -x or the deluxe
its more $ then your shuttle but its a great mb.

the video card and ram is fine

if i was gonna build with 3200+ id just pay the little extra and go with a 64bit cpu

Thats much better... I'm not one for the "cheapo" Power Supplies that come with low end cases (I actually like the look of the case you picked out) but most work just fine. Worst case scenario is the PS goes and you replace it with a 420W Antec for $50 or so..

This is just one opinion, but it IS an educated one (I'm one of the "chosen" 10%.. LOL)
