Make sure to stick to lowprofile ram, then.
Might be fine without, but losing out on one bank because of it would be a waste.
I might be out of place here, as it seems you already got a few parts picked out. But, in order to have the mmo-champ guru's whip up a few builds, it might be a good idea to start a new topic after reading
this helpful sticky. Figured this might be a good idea since you seemingly changed your mind about buying a prebuilt system vs building one yourself. (Good choice, btw!)
If you can answer all those questions, the nice people of mmochamp can suggest a few builds and everything will be much clearer. I'm sure me and Shroudster (and any other dutchies lurking about) can help out with prices and whatnot.
Oh, and speaking of prices: don't forget to use the
tweakers pricewatch.
