Everything looks fine except the power supply. It doesn't have the dual 12V rails that a gaming rig needs. Switch to this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817103931
Edited, thanks FK. Last edited by Alaron; 05-23-2006 at 08:51 PM. |

Alaron, it appears you've linked back to the original power supply choice there!!
![]() Nacho, since you're going for an SLI motherboard, it would make sense to purchase an SLI-Certified power supply now, in case you decide to add another video card in the future. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817103931 FK

No need for Platinum RAM unless you plan on overclocking. Unless this is like that Corsair XMS RAM that is currently cheaper than value RAM after rebate...
EDIT: Yes, that looks to be the case. Looks like a good build.
