    Im building a new system, specifications below.I have had enough of my old pc, its driving me insane it starts coughing wheezing when I play Counter-strike, now it wont shut down properly.



    Anyway Id love to get peoples opinion on this system.
    Im not too sure about that main board Im tempted to go for an n-force2 based board.
    The 9800 pro, is that overkill, should I go for a 9700 pro?
    Im tempted to save 100 euro but I dont want to overclock to death to run Doom 3 or any other upcoming gfx intensive games.

    If anyone spots any incompatabilities let me know.
    Does anyone know where I could get an Apple Pro USB keyboard at a good price? Ive only seen it around the 75 euro price.

    Looks good.

    Still it's a mad world these days when on one hand you get a CPU, the board, a cooler and some RAM. ANd then you get a mini version of that only call it s GPU and it's for graphics :)
