How about an F3 spinpoint 1TB instead?

And if the proc was $200 then you're really only saving like $15 from a better set of memory such as below.

As for the blu-ray. Personally I came to the conclusion that I'll never buy a blu-ray movie so why bother. Anyway I'll probably wait until the blanks are cheap enough before buying a writer.

Hmm , not a bad pair of suggestions. Def want to stick to blue as ram color *stupid, but none the less*.

Any other thoughts or suggestions are as always, welcome.

for your hard drive. good luck!

Get the spinpoint f3 hard drive as suggested. if you don't need 1tb, get the 500gb for $55.

Do you really watch movies on your computer? Just saying...

That motherboard doesn't support 6gb/s sata or USB 3.0...

This one does and it's blue

Which of the MOBO's would OC easier ? Or would they be basicly the same?
