"only" 1GB of RAM in a new build? That would be great for XP but looks like your running Vista- Vista likes a lot of RAM.

I aim for 4GB at least (my laptop) and more if possible (8GB in my recent desktop build).

You got the same case as me  :D

I unplugged the fan and put in a quieter one at the back. It's great for a first build.
