get a diff brand name RAM. 4 gig kits sell 4 50 bucks. that money you can use to buy a gtx 216(because the 9800 sucks balls while the gtx 260 gives impressive kicks [when ran wit 4 gigs of course]). you also forgot the cpu cooler. for about 60 bucks the thermalright 120 extreme is kickass(even maxpc said so). it runs 30 degrees on average more than a stock cooler. now thats kickass(sorry to be redundant). ♂

add about $20 for a 4 gigabyte kit and you can roll like none other. I also recommend the his iceQ4+ 4870 for another 20-something dollars
