        as for your fans, ball bearing fans, although they have a longer life, are known to be noisier then sleeve bearing fans.

        as for your video card, i suggest you spend a little more and get an 8800gt. the 9600gt, although newer, cannot out perform the 8800 gt.

        one last added note, if your going to be gaming, i suggest an intel CPU and a socket 775 mobo. you are not going to find any AMD mobos that go past 590i SLI.

        Not disputing you at all, but might you explain this a little more, please?

          sure.

          AMD mobos do not go past 590i. you will not find any 650i, 680i, 750i, or 780i AMD mobos.

            I agree with Homer. Depending on your budget, I would get a newer intel cpu(1333 MHz), and a MoBo to support it.
