Hi,

I'm currently thinking of buying a new rig but it's bin 5years since I had the pleasure of doing so. I'm a bit lost in the maze of goodies.


This is what I'm thinking of:

Case : (big tower yet to be determined)
Power : Chieftec CFT-1200G-DF (1200watts 80% capacity)
Mobo : XFX Nvidia Nforce 790i SLi (1333MHz)
Processor : 2Intel® Core™ 2 Quad Q9450 (1333MHz)
Processor Coolers : (No idea at all but it has to be up to the task)
Additional Coolers : (No idea at all but it has to be quiet)
Vid.Card : Nvidia 9800GX2 (as this card is... well a bit expensive, I would like to know if there's a card which performs about the same but costs less)
Memory : (Brand yet to be determined) 2GG cas/ras 9.9.9 (1333Mhz)
Hardisk : 750GG Maxtor DimondMax 22
Sound Card : Non (as I have a Plantronics Game headset which is awesome)

I'm not interested in overclocking just want a stable rig that will work for the next 5 to 8 years.

This rig is around 1500,00 euro's which is just a coupple of 100,00 euro's over my budget.

Is there somenone who can give me an idea of what to buy for the things marked in RED & GREEN or has other or additional ideas?

Thx for replying,
