spice his wallet up .. because there won't be anything in it! I'm in just about the same boat as his.. and it's NOT a good time to upgrade IMO.. at least when you're in our situation.. waiting for pci-express is the best decision in my view

Default very true jason
this was my first system build, and yes it does sound like a wind tunnel, my Abit IS7 northbridge fan is strangely very loud upon startup.. any suggestions? But yea for the most part this computer will do for now, until i get my 9800 pro Hi tech style, this will do for now.

If your chipset fan is loud, then just get another one, say by Zalman, and replace it.

I don't blame you, I just fell into some scholarship money that allowed me to get my current system. I'm still serious about that board/cpu and video card...

I never said it sucked, I just said that it needs to be overclocked.
