I see.. Thanks for your input.

Ah. Ok. I see your point. Thanks. And about the Antec Nine Hundred case, its huge and roomy with good cooling right? Its approximately $98 on their site. My brother has an Antec case and its slick.

Hmm.. I thought I sad I was getting x2 of the Corsair (2X1GB). Sorry if I didn't put that. I'll think about the case. Thanks :D. And I know Vista sucks... but it can recognize 4 GB of RAM. EDIT: Oh yea. I forgot to mention. I'm also getting Vista for the DX10. I have an 8800 why not use it?

So.. I'm switching from Mac to PC for Gaming and modeling. My old Mac, a G5 with PowerPC processor sucks balls in Maya. The bad thing is.. I have to get all new apps and stuff for the new PC. But anyways.. Heres the layout so far.. I'm on a budget of less than $1500. Remember that this is for gaming and 3-d Modeling.
