Hi everyone,<br><br>I just wanted to say thanks for the detailed feedback - it was extremely helpful! Based on your suggestions, I revised my original specs. I'm now going to purchase:<br><br>Case: Silverstone LC10B-E ATX<br>
MB: Gigabyte GA-MA785GMT-UD2H<br>CPU: AMD Phenom II X3 720 2.8GHz<br>GPU: Nvidia 9500GT<br>RAM: Kingston HyperX 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR3<br>HD1 (OS): WD Caviar Blue 160GB<br>HD2 (Data): WD Caviar Green 1TB<br>PSU: ENERMAX MODU82+ 425W<br>
Tuner: Still haven't decided :)<br><br>This hardware will perform much better than my original selections, and it costs less! Even better, the AM3/DDR3 motherboard will be much more scalable than my original choice.<br>
<br>Thanks again!<br><br>-Laura<br clear="all"><br>
