Smile Hi all

Hi all, just stumbled onto this forum. I am truely an "noOrb" or newbie. Going to build my first computer. Just purchase the Antec P150 case on line today. Still undecided on the motherboard but are leaning toward the Asus A8N32 SLI Deluxe when it becomes available. Also purchase a WD Raptor HD for programs and a SATA Maxtor (300mb) for data storage. Looking forward to your comments and suggestions.

Welcome to PimpRig. All the smartest people hangout here. You now have a wealth of info at your fingertips. You just have to ask. And just like HigHTecHReDNecK above, anything $SOLID$Necro offers is usually alway's the best advice you can get around here. This is not to say he has the only good advice. BA is a straight shooter and ZENNZZO is on the top of my list also. I'd also like to thank my family and all the other PimpRig members who made this award possible. Thank You, Thank You. (swift exit to the right now).

Question a8n32

speaking of that new asus board, does anyone know if a smaller ZALMAN CNPS7000B-AlCu cpu cooler will afford me enough space to use that high-profile xms LL series ram from corsair?
