Hi their. Im just in the process of a new build but im stuck on what to get next.So far i have

Intel Core 2 Duo E6550 2.33GHz (Retail 775),
ASUS P5K Intel iP35 Socket 775 Motherboard/ Quickcode: #27298 on aria website,
Geforce 6800 ultra 258mb.

i would really like to hear what sort of memory is best for this setup and what size power supply i would need.
At the moment i’m running windows xp 32bit but i would consider upgrading to vista 64 if this is an advantage.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Normally i would recommend getting 2 gigs of ram since its recommended for Vista but i’d kick it up to 4 gigs since there isn’t much of a price difference and you’re probably going to need it in the future.
Any of these would be satisfactory: Newegg.com - 5, DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500), 4GB (2 x 2GB), Desktop Memory, Memory, Computer Hardware

You won’t need such a powerful PSU; a 400 would be suitable: Newegg.com - ATX12V, 401 - 450W, 401 - 500W, Power Supplies, Power Supplies, Computer Hardware
(stick with known brands)

No your motherboard supports 1066 so it would take care of itself
