Hello again, Well, you all have sure given me a bunch to think about. Maybe I'm being a bit hasty on my choices. It seems everyone you talk to has a little different opinion. But from what I seem to be hearing from everyone here as well as a few other people, the main thing I need to get is the fastest processor as affordable as well as all the RAM I can afford. The video card seems to be a lowly third decision. I sure appricate everyones thoughts here. I hope to get my new system going in the next couple of weeks. Wish me luck! Nebula
