Another typical "i'm upgrading" thread....

[Raining_again]

Basically starting from scratch. I havent really got a budget. Has to be mATX sized which comes with it the constraints of heat and size.

 

asus p5k-vm. Something similar to this.

 

For ram, I checked on crucial and it seems to support up to 8500. Does ram leak out an extensive amount of heat, and will it make a difference between speeds?

 

Also going for an e6600 with that (or something in that "family") Again may change depending on space/heat.

 

And i'd like a reasonable (perhaps around 100-150 pound) graphics card, with two DVI slots.

 

psu probably 500-600w.. depending upon what goes in it as above.

 

Get your geeky hats on guys
