HDD: W
Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD7500AAKS 750GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM $200
I picked this over the raptor because I need the room and the raptor doesn't appear to be worth the price vs storage.
RAM:
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model BL2KIT12864AA804 - Retail $250 (4 gigs total)
I figure I can get it to well over 500 mhz (I hope 550+) with OCing.
MOBO:
ASUS P5K DELUXE/WIFI-AP LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail $220
Has Vdroop and wifi. Appears to be the best DDR2 p35 mobo out from what I've read.
Liquid Cooling
Pump:
Swiftech MCP655 12 VDC Pump Liquid Cooling System - Retail $90
Its a good pump that should last a while.
Thermochill 120.3 $135
Not sure where to buy, but its supposed to be the best radiator for low speed fans. Should handle an OC'd q6600 no prob.
Swiftech MCB-120 "Radbox" - Retail $15
I need one, thats all there is to it.
Tubing:
Tygon 3603 Tubing 1/2" ID 3/4" OD $2.8 per foot.
CPU block:
Swifttec storm : $65
Swiftec apogee gtx: $75
Which ones of these is better? I thought the storm was the better of the two?
I own:
Video card: x1900xtx (waiting till when I need a DX10 card)
CPU: Q6600 GO stepping (yup, I preordered w/ tankguys and they will probably be shipping on the 6th)
Case: antec p180b
PSU: 650 watt seasonic s12
Anything I need to change?
