Computer Purchase Query

Good input, but the 8600 needs 22 amps at 12V1. I'm having a hard time finding a budget power supply that meets that criteria. Can you show me one?

The 8 Series seems to be incompatible with M:TW/S:TW, so, should you want to play these games, selecting it is probably inadvisable.

If I'm correct, the money spent on the 4GB of RAM may be a little unnecessary - particularly should you be using a 32bit version of Windows. I've read multiple complaints that 32bit Vista at least, can't take advantage of anything over 3GB. I think that if you want to use more than 3GB, Windows XP Professional 64bit or any edition of 64bit Windows Vista is required.
