    Hi, I'm hopefully going to upgrade this week and I need some help choosing the components . Budget £800, mainly use it for playing games and it needs to be quiet.

    Current Choice:

    Antec ATX Anodized Aluminium SuperMid TowerCase - P160
    £74.03

    Crucial Technology 184Pin DIMM 512MB PC3200 Non-Parity CL2 64Mx64
    x2
    £151.48

    Lite-On CD-RW Int IDE 52r 52w 32rw RP
    £15.31

    Lite-On DVD+-R/RW 16x Dual Layer Retail IDE
    £45.95

    Antec NEO480GB Power Supply
    £76.59

    Abit Socket 939 K8T800Pro ATX Audio LAN RAID
    £71.48

    AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Socket 939 512Kb Inc Fan (winchester)
    £168.50

    Total £714.88 (including VAT)

    Going to keep current GFX.

    Thanks in advance!

    Your components are fine but if you are sticking with your 9800 Pro its is going to severely limit your PC down when playing games. You won't be able to appreciate the real power of your A64 3500.
