Thanks for the advice and suggestions, true it is a lot of info to digest, however the last time I had to deal with this type of thing was 4 years ago. So from what I'm hearing I should look for a case that handles a 450 watt PS, get a Motherboard that handles PCIe slots and newest generation processors, also that is Vista friendly. Sounds like DDR2 Ram is the way to go as well. Because it makes sense to get the best core stuff that will serve me well for the next 3-4 years. Anything I may have missed chime in, I don't mind shifting through info so I make a wise decision. As for single and Dual processors, I take it that Duals will be the wave of the future, or is that it is just the lastest rage?

As for Sound and Vid cards and the rest, I can go with slightly older Technology and upgrade later on once better stuff comes out. Sounds like I'm on the right track there Guys and Gal?
