I am planning on building a occasional gaming and light 3D CAD system in the next month. I really would only use it on a day to day basis as internet, video, and word processing rig. Trying to do it on a budget which is padded by some existing parts that I have. I will also add a FireGL or Quadro card down the road so 2 PCIe x 16 are a must...
Current Parts:
2GB x 2 G.Skill DDR2 800
500 GB Seagate Barracuda
OK, now comes the fun part...
New Parts @ $600 from newegg.
E8400
Antec BP550 Plus
ASUS P5Q3
EVGA 512 MB 9800 GTX+
Rosewill Wind Knight Case
The case is still somewhat in the air, but it's nice because it comes with two fans...
Also, is it worth it to go to this???

Appreciate all the help/advice I can get!!
Thanks
