Not too sure of the wisdom in getting a $300 C2D for a low end Foxconn
mobo and HD2600Pro GPU. The AMD X1950XT is far superior except for the
less advanced AVIVO or spend more and get a Geforce 8800 GTS 640. I
believe nVidia's 650/680 chipsets also support that CPU's FSB. XP Pro is
definitely the way to go for compatibility and gaming.

I'm probably going to get XP or Vista ultimate (probably XP).
Is this case good enough? What about that vidcard? I don't play
games that much, but would like to be able to.
Is the stock fan / heat sink good enough? I generally don't overclock.
Did I forget anything?
