Spend the $132 you won't regret it. Definitly worth it to upgrade to a 9700 PRO over a ti4600. Everything else looks good. I would try to get into the 800mhz bus intels if possible too.

I would agree at this point on the Motherboard. I have an Asus P4PE (845PE) but the new boards (875 I believe) will do the 800 MHz FSB chips, so I would probably go that route instead. But the Combo you have listed is definitely a good one. Using the 2.53 P4 CPU, you would probably be just fine with what you have listed. I haven't checked to see if the price looks competitive though. Glen "Doug Hook" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:dEcya.940991$S_4.956909@rwcrnsc53... > Spend the $132 you won't regret it.
