Change the ram. Here is something good: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145590
Look at this HD instead (I don't feel the raptor is worth the increase in price): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148144 But the best price per gb is probably the 7200.11 500gb drive. Not sure about samsung dvd drives. Look at lite-on sata retail: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827106072 Get a better power supply. Look at this thread for ideas: http://forum.pcmech.com/showthread.php?t=131195 Also, what operating system are you going to use? What is your budget for this thing?

I am planning on using XP Pro for the OS.
I am looking to stay under $1,500. Thanks for the options. I wasn't thrilled about the Patriot memory or the Samsung DVD, but thought since I saw it in an article here I thought it might be worth looking into at least. |

Ok,
How about I remove my Memory, UPS, DVD and HDD and replace with these Memory http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16820145590 UPS http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16817371009 DVD http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827106072 HDD http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148144 Now I know this is exactly what you mentioned, but I do like those choices better for now. Thanks. |

That PSU is good, but it's a bit much for your uses.
Could try to save some money with a 650 unit, and that would still give you some head room to upgrade.
