Heh, thanks for the advice, time for a new HD...too bad Western Digital dos not make one below 20 gigs. also how important is compatability of HD with processor and mobo and fans and all that jazz?

Just with the mobo. If the mobo has a ATA-66 connector, there's no need to get an ATA-100 drive, although most today are standard.

You should get a WD drive with 7200RPM, and ATA-100, ATA-133 if your mobo supports it.

I'm saving for Asus's new baby, the P4G8X (droooooooool.. . heh)

yeah the one I'm lookin at is ATA 100 WD Caviar 20 gig , what mobo would go well with that drive?

Good hard drive, I had that one.

Like I said, any ATA-100 board. I trust only Asus, but others like Abit and Tyan too.

damn I have to figure out which processor and Mobo to get at the same time oOo:

Germ, lemme know what you do, I'll get a better price for you.

I need a new ethernet card, does it have to be compatible with anything? also what do you mean by cooling the HD? and what can I do with my current HD if I get a new one...

oOo:
