I am still considering using instead of the AMD (and yes im aware everyone here will say for me to use the AMD)
Abit IC7-G
Pentium 4 prescott core 3.2GHz

Im wondering is this a good setup to overclock? and any suggestions anyoen can make on it (dont mention my choice of the intel either please but im looking for advice on the rest of it)

I already have a SB audigy2 ZS sound card and a PixelView PlayTVpro tv tuner that i will be putting it it as well

For Twinmos ram, would go with <A HREF="http://www.twinmos.com/dram/dram_p_twister_pro_dualchannel_ddr400.htm" target="_new">Twinmos Twister Pro DDR400</A> instead. Rated at DDR400 but capable of much more.

Get a 6600GT PCI-E and save some dough. Is the Phillips LCD the one with the 12ms refresh? You'll want 16ms or less. Get a real DVD Burner with the GPU savings.

Its got the 16ms response time, but im getting it at a ex demo price so its quite alot cheaper. I dont need a DVD burner at the moment, im waiting until they get a bit better, 'll upgrade it late next year probably.
I'll look into that RAM, i dont know much about it so i ust added on what my friend told me to.

An AMD should be easier to keep running cooler

Trust me I know what I'm doing... ooops, grab the cat...

Yeha i know the AMD will run cooler but i always been a fan of intel, and 2 of my best mates (one of whom is wuzy) are telling me to get it and the most important reason i need my computer by the 12/12/04 and theres a 2 to 4 week delay before the parts become avaliable in NZ from being released in the US so it might be a bit late for me also anyone knwo anythign about the Asus nForce4? is it better or worse or about the same?

Nforce4 = Cock Robin, or as you might say, "bloody fantastic". Get one if you can wait.
