Im not sure what monitor would be best, thinking about samsung 22inch (about 300pounds i think), im going to get a tv card also, could someone suggest a nice cheap one with simple pvr stuff on it, also i want my system to be as quiet as possible so if you think there is anything noisy in there pls say.. thanks very much for the help in advance.

setup looks good mate

samsungs are generally quiet, so not much noise there=.
the AC7 on my C2D is very quiet, so not much noise there
Memory is good, corsair stuff is usually the biz.

Yeah altogether a nice setup, not really much to improve upon
get some pics of it

apart from the freak of nature keyboard. thats pretty much perfect

thats so i can play poker easily in bed, you think a trackball one would be better?

[Steve B]

trackballs probably easier than those awful touch-pads on laptops i hate them!
