OT: Building A New System

[Electrum]

Therm's specs are fine. But figure on 2 Memory modules. P-4's are memory hungry, there want a lot, & the want it fast. 2 modules will make use of the dual DDR.
you also might look at the Asus P4P800. It has comparable specs to the Intel board (I think expect for firewire) for a comparable price. Asus has a proven record for stability, performance & tweakability. Intel keeps their Boards pretty average.
