Hi, I am going to be putting together a new system based on a Core2 E6600 with the intel badaxe board. I'm most likely going to go for 2gigs of DDR2 533 ram and a Radeon X1900XT card, and a raptor 150gig hd. Eventually I'll probably want to upgrade to 4gigs of ram at some point, I dont plan on overclocking at all. I just want something stable and reliable.
It seems the most difficult choices I face are the PS and case. For the PS I just want something that will run my rig and be as stable as possible. For the case I dont want anything fancy, just something relatively quiet but with good airflow.
I'm open to mid or full tower, although since I dont plan on more than 2hd, and 2optical drives ever, mid would probably be best.
As far as price, I'd be fine spending about 300 total for both, but obviously less is better.
