Gaming PC for $1900 (1800 us) Help appreciated [:D]

Hey guys just wondering what u guys think i know you get a lot of questions like this but thx for helpin anyway

btw this is all in Canadian dollars 

Im just lookin for thoughts so if u guys think anything would be better or could save money without sacrificing performance

Thx tc 

not bad, i assume its a typo and its a gtx for that price  .. you might think about 4gb of ram for vista just as a heads up.

 Un fortunately the GTX is 623 a little out of my price range

do u think that i could reuse a heatsink its the same as i was going to buy
 

 you talking about the 9500? you could reuse it fine.

DISCLAIMER:  I know the OP IRL and my post should be taken as such ;).

Firstly tee fix your grammar this is a forum and not your english essay. :P

 Secondly, all seems in order except as Der says, 4 Gigs will tide you through Vista and some upcoming Games that are going to "require" it to be played to their full extent.

The 6600 Overclocks quite well as I can attest, and while you can easily stick with the Zalman you have, consider a new, perhaps pre-packaged water cooling system for maximum performance and bang for the buck.

Air keeps mine cool running @ a modest 3ghz, but perhaps the h20 cooler u suggested would be a good way to maximize.

I had an aquagate mini from coolermaster on my last rig(unfortunately I couldn't find 1 on the web to post a link for you... probably discontinued), but there are other options.

The new version is here.

I thought about it and i think im going to stick with my Silenx IXtrema Pro fans that do a good enough job for me

I think im just gonna OC my proc to get it to run like the E6700

@ recoveringknowitall.

 1. Yes that should be maximize, and I have the same cooler you mentioned, does wonders for OCing.

2. The jibberish in the first line equates to "I know the original poster in real life" in modern english ;).

@ tee.

Good rig, looks solid, nice finds for the rebates.
