Two problems with this thread.

1) It's in the wrong forums

2) I see no link to a store

Regardless, I know that we have plenty of computer wizzes in here who will help you! They helped me! Good luck on getting the rig you want!

Dissonance, you need to edit the "nVidia build" CPU cooler. You list "Zalman - CNPS9500 AM2 Ultra Quiet CPU Cooler for AM2 / 754 / 939 / 940" as your recommendation for that component.

That particular model is not compatible with socket LGA775 processors (Intel - Core™2 Duo Processor E8400 3.00GHz w/ 6MB Cache). If you want to stay consistent, you should select the ZALMAN CNPS9500 AT 2 Ball CPU Cooling Fan/Heatsink which is designed for the socket LGA775 CPU socket type.
