Is there anything I should change before I order?

[ravage]

Hi All,

A quick review of this would be great. I already have a case hence why it's missing off the list.

Quick review:
Asus P5K-E, q6600 processor, 4gb ram, 2 Raptor 75gb raid 0 plus a 500gb drive, 2900 XT.

Also do I have the right ram?

Oh couple other things. The 226cw instead of the bw due to the samsung panel for sure.
The CPU and the Sound card I am going to buy elsewhere. Sound card is out of stock and the CPU will be guranteed G0.

Unless your running Vista 4 GB's of RAM is overkill.
Also, you have 1 HDD @ 500GB and 2 more @ 74GB, please explain the purpose or intended purpose,
are you planning on using mismatched HDD's in a RAID configuration.?

Perhaps the ZEROtherm BTF90 Cooler:

Its cools a little better, its a little quiter, and a little cheaper.

(Note: It's also cuter than a bugs ear)

I see you cite many komplett links. Have you seen scan.co.uk? They're pretty good.

As for soundcards, if you can get the XtremeMusic or hold on for the Auzentech Prelude, you'll do better, since the Prelude is newer and the XtremeGamer is a stipped down version (literally too, it's smaller) of the XtremeMusic, which is said to be out of production now

If you need a case, the antec p180 series is a good choice.
