    Smile Help Me Finalize A New System

    After several years with a Pentium 450 at home, the times come for a complete upgrade. I don't expect much gaming to be done on this rig (though I will occasionally), but I want it to be future proof. I'll be picking up a Maxtor 80 or 120GB 8MB HD locally and an Antec case locally as well (along with OS etc.). I'll be fine in terms of parts not otherwise listed (i.e. CD-RW, monitor etc.).

    Check it out and offer suggestions. It should actually be quite a bit faster than my current college rig, but I don't plan on upgrading that until Christmas. I have concerns about the video card and RAM quality. I do want to overclock this, but nothing aggresive requiring special cooling. Suggestions appreciated!
