I'm about the re-build my system. Only things I'm adding is a new dual core AMD 4400+ (yes, I know it's two year old tech now) which I got from newegg for $70.I'm also chucking in a 550 watt Thermaltake PSU and a new Western Digital Caviar 500 GB drive. I figure this'll be my last, and only, re-build on this motherboard, an Asus A8V-Deluxe, until I upgrade in about a year or two. I'm gonna of course put a fresh install of my Windows XP Pro as usual. If I ever do go Vista, it will have to be my next complete build and it will have to be the SP2 Vista.
