Your opinions on this system please

I'm building up a basic system for work and have settled on the following

INTEL S775 Core 2 Duo (Conroe) E6400 2.13GHz CPU
GIGABYTE GA-945GM-S2 PCIE 16X Intel Core 2 Duo (Conroe)
KINGMAX Dual Channel 2Gb (2x1G) PC5300 DDR2 667 Memory (RAM)
HITACHI 20OGB SATA2 Hard Disk Drive
LG 16X Black Dual Layer DVD+/-RW, DVD-Ram Burner
ASUS EN7300LE Supp 512MB 16X PCI-Express w/2xVGA DVI
8cm Case Fan For Computer Cases
THERMALTAKE Mambo Black Case NO PSU
ClipperPro 50OW ATX Power Supply with 12cm Fan

It should retail for just over $1600 AUS with monitor, XP Pro, etc.

Any suggestions?

 

Any suggestions? yes, sounds like a good pc, have fun. ed

 

Are you going to be doing any gaming or using 3d apps like CAD? If so you may want to consider a video upgrade, a 7300LE is pretty basic

 

Not cad, but image editing.

Just discovered that it is not a 512 card, but only 128 that supports (supp) 512.

I'll need to get it upgraded probably to ALBATRON Nvidia GeForce 6600 512MB PCI-Express

 

i dont think a 6600 would be able to take advantage of that amount of RAM. Try a 6800 256/512mb or 6600gt 256mb (rare so u may not ba able to find one) Just make sure it has a 256-bit memory interface. A good 256 card will out perform a bad 512mb card by a long shot. Dont go for one with shared memory (TurboCache/Hypermemory) as it will eat up your system RAM.
