My new Gaming machine

As i have mentioned i am building a gaming beast. Having ordered the case, HD's and some accessories a few weeks ago, i am now down to the biggest 3(ie. the Motherboard, processor and Graphics card). The processor was a bit of a tough desision. I finally decided on the AMD Athlon 64 3400+ with 1MB L2 cache because of it's high performance accross the board. For the motherboard i have chosen the MSI K8N Neo Platinum based on the scores of great reviews and many overclocking options integrated in the bios. I should be ordering the mobo tomorrow and the Processor is in the mail. I am planning on running 3 Kingston 512MB DDR DIMM's at a true 4ooMhz , based on the performance available from the onboard memory control. I have chosen the Nvidia GeForce 6800GT 256MB for a GC and should be able to buy that in April. I am very excited to see how it'll perform. This is the first cmputer i have ever built and it looks to be a nice one.

hmmm..... interesting, yet I'm not thrilled. I'm sure computer people will be more enthralled though.
