Looks good, you're set :icon14:
I'd go for another gig of RAM to put the cherry on top. That HDD is 16MB cache I presume?
I have the "fuck Vista" outlook on things as well and am planning on the latest in Nvidia's 7-series to put a bowtie on my system. IMO, too many people are boycotting Vista so we'll probably see DX9 games for at least another 3 years. Otherwise the PC gaming industry would die.

People claimed they would never buy an xbox 360 either simply because MS stopped support for the first one when they launched the new one.

No, you probably won't. The push for Vista will be even bigger than what we saw for XP.

In that case, I'll be behind PC technology for the first time and won't mind it at all. Might as well buy a brand new system if I need a new motherboard, RAM, video card, and O/S.
