Hey, wuz up all. Iam no PC expert, but i really love it. Iam ganna build a new rig, and here are somethings that i should say before. I want something good for Film editing, and i like playing games to, CS, etc.. and i do wanna OC it alittle. I am willing to waste MAX 1600 bucks (or less) and the things i had in mind were:
Antec Nine Hundred Black
intel q6600
ASUS P5K DELUXE/WIFI-AP
CORSAIR CMPSU-620HX
CORSAIR XMS2 4GB(2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400)
Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 ST3500320AS 500GB
ZALMAN CNPS 9700 NT 110mm
EVGA 512-P3-N802-A1 GeForce 8800GT Superclocked 512MB 256-bit GDDR3

what iam really not sure to get is the MOBO.... so, if anyone has any other suggestions, tnx!:up:

If you want to save some money you could pick up a cheaper board. Unless of course you need all the features found on the Deluxe. You could make a better choice on the CPU heatsink. A lot better out there for the money. Other than that it looks good to me.

Spend the few extra $$ and get the Thermalright here. (http://www.petrastechshop.com/thulhecpucos.html) Pick up a couple of the yate loon fans while your at it. If you really want to get the most out of your set-up, it's the only way to go.

EDIT: Just saw your in Brazil. I bet Petra's could ship to you, but the price will probably be way high. Still, look for the TRUE in you area.
