Looks OK Rod.

One suggestion though - Go up to 2x1Gb (2Gb total) memory.

[edit] And AVOID Vista like the plague!!!!!

You know Kev, Didn't realize when I bought it but we apparently will have the same MB and processor.

I may add Raid later, I have 2 160s that will be hanging round from my old machine. Purchased a 250 gig Wester Digital for the new machine. It was only for 70 bucks, had to take it.

You might want to consider a core-duo processor.

The price difference is little, and the performance difference is HUGE!

Don't let the speeds fool you.. my 1.8GHZ E6300 core-duo blows away all P4 and PD computers I've used!

Skuzzy should be able to vouch for me here...
