OK, I think I have settled on a Mobo...Thanks guys for you recommendations...Now, for the RAM, I am REALLY tempted to go with what I know...I have been using GEIL RAM for the longest, and thus lack resources for proper hardware analysis and so forth...I'm probably going to go with 2 Gigs this time instead of the 1 Gig I've been using for the longest...Just for good measure... /:D" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt=":D" /> Any suggestions on RAM, or am I pretty much safe to stick with what I know on this one..?

I'm working on my RAM now...
Have a look at the timings of this shit..! I'm thinking about going 2 Gigs or better, so I can scrap the paging file all togther, less I keep a dedicated pagefile/scrap drive on one of the optic cables...

Mate, it's almost impossible to get rid of the paging file completely..
Windows can always find a use for that evil file..

I'll probably put a harddrive on IDE, for things like temp files, paging files, scratch drive, etc...I have noticed a few benefits of having a dedicated page file drive...

Well, because of all the moderation work I've been doing, I haven't done much more research on it...But, I figure that I am just about ready to move onto the video and pci cards, as the core components are in place...I must find something that will allow me to retire my AIW with glee...I am a big fan of multi tasking, and I must be able to watch and record television on my machine...

How about a FusionHDTV ATSC HDTV5Gold (http://www.fusionhdtv.co.kr/eng/Products/ATSC5Gold.aspx) and MCE2005..? Or you could just use the included viewer app (faster channel surfing) and set it to be on-top, in the corner of the srceen..
I'm pretty sure you could find a similar solution with a different company, but FusionHDTV are pretty damn good in my books

Daman WAI, that looks awesome..! Thanks for the tip...I'm really thinking about whether or not I want to run dual nVidia, or dual ATI...It is going to be pretty hard for me to leave ATI, they are always on the cutting edge, seemingly one step ahead of nVidia all the time...The video cards are probably going to be the hardest things for me to choose...
