    Most of that list I like, except I keep trying to tell people lately about this RAM deal that Mushkin is having. I just got it in Tues. - 2x512 of what they're calling their "Promo Build". It's $139./per + $6. shipping.

    It's on an excellent Mushkin PCB (IMHO, Mushkin makes the best PCB's for memory sticks in the biz), and it has the same Winbond BH-5 mem chips as Corsair XMS PC3500! But the clincher is: it's full 2-2-2 CAS!, not 2-3-2, etc. I am sure it will o/c to 3500 speeds easily, and I'll find out as soon as I get an o/c'able mobo.

    Check it out at http://www.mushkin.com/epages/Mushkin.storefront

    Also, I remember seeing Sharky recommending Mushkin PC3200 in their January High-End Gaming Rig

    ...you'll see that Corsair isn't "the only game in town". Anyway, good luck building yer rig!
