    How's this for a new system?

    Here's what I hope to be ordering from newegg in the next few days. I do plan to overclock, probably with a Thermalright SK7 (fan unknown). The system is for everything from Dreamweaver to Lightwave 3D - tell me what you think.

    CPU: AMD Athlon XP 2100+
    RAM: Kingston PC3000 512MB
    Motherboard: Epox 8RDA+
    Case/PSU: Chieftec ATX-601AE green w/ 450W PSU
    Hard drive: On hold (considering WD Special Edition w/ 8MB cache)

    Video card: On hold (considering Geforce FX5600 400MHz)
    Sound card: Audigy 2 OEM

    DVD-ROM: Samsung 16x
    Keyboard/mouse: Chieftec optical combo, green

    I have a couple of questions, if anyone cares to answer them:
    1) Will I be able to use the PC3000 when I upgrade to a next-gen platform?
    2) Is the PSU that comes with the case any good?
