Alright guys, so I finally have the chip in my hands! So this is what I'm thinking about (so far) purchasing here to round out the computer. However, I'm confused like hell on what type of RAM to buy and what video card to purchase.

You guys have been an incredible help to me and I really appreciate it.

Need a budget and purpose for the video card mate. Any branded DDR2 800 will do fine, Corsair XMS2 seems very popular.

The case is horrific and the motherboard is vastly overpriced. The HSF is equal in performance to others that cost less than half. Grab a CP-850 and the P183, Xigmatek if you want a HSF, and a P45.
