With that setup, you don't need to OC. The Athlon 64 X2 4800+ OWNS ALL CPU, dammit!! That is the BEST. All the reviews from Maximum PC, PC Magazine, PC World, CPU Magazineetc, etc say it is and proven with benchmarks. Who needs OC? The 7800GTX will dominate all video cards too. With the power of the X2 4800+ by its side, her PC will be TOTAL OWNAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dammit, now I'm pumped to build my own super computer. *transfer all her specs onto mine*

Haha, the 4800+ is the best CPU for retail so far, but the Cell (co-developed by IBM & Toshiba) is the best CPU in the world. I don't know why you're so excited...it's overkill for what she even needs. In my opinion, it's a waste of money if you're just looking for bragging rights. I would just use half of that $3500 for a nice computer and save the rest for whatever. Oh well...whatever floats your boat.

The Mushkin Redline and OCZ Platinum VX are the best DDR2.
I wasn't referring to DDR2. AMD does not currently support DDR2 standards only DDR memory technology. Intel supports DDR2. Next year, we will see AMD adapt to DDR2 but for now, that RAM is the best available for current AMD supported use.

Also, we have to be realistic here. Can anyone really have the Cell right now? Especially for PC use? Certainly a possibility. but not now. But we have to focus what we can get now. Can you have an X2 4800+? Absolutely, if you can afford it. It's available everywhere online and even in some stores.
It may be an overkill system but it's what she wants. I would say screw it too. If you have the money, get something good and obvisouly, that is a good system.
