im not liking that hitachi 5k3000, its not a 7200 RPM drive and you said its going to be for video editing so you need to squeeze everything you can out of it.

just to give you an idea on how much money you could save by swapping platforms.

AMD X4 965 (3.4)
Asus M5A88-V EVO Mainboard
16 GB DDR3 Dual Chan Corsiar Mem
Seagate 2TB 7200RPM 64MB cache
Seagate 750 7200RPM 32MB cache
TX850 Power Supply
ThermalTake V9 Case

I left out video card and bluray because you didn't say ROM or RW

im staring at a total of a whooping

$759.00



still wanna stick with intel?
