any suggestions for this configuration?

i think you should look into changing that RAM to something faster than 266Mhz especially if its only at CLK 2.5 ?!? For Crucial memory thats actually kind of odd... I personally like Pc2700 333Mhz DDR RAM @ CLK 2 but you may even want to look into PC3200 RAM @ CLK 2.5 ... the price differences are worth the performance boost.

Ok here. I've updated alittle... should i bother with this ram or is better to go with curcial 2.5cl? It's alittle over-budget, but i'm willing for better video. The mobo only supports ddr266. It's a dual channel board which'll get rdram-like performance. The case isn't really of concern... it comes with a 450watt foxcon psu, and a window wich meets my requirements... and it looks like it's easy to use. And the mobo also has ata133 raid as well as sata raid onboard... what do you all think?

Yeah. Upgrading to the 9500 PRO will make a big difference.
