and there you go....youre under 1400

sweeet. I think I'l get an ocerclocked XFX one, or just the standard SUPERCLOCKED EVGA one, what do u guys thinks?

Thanks 

Save $50 and get the CPU from here... http://www.ncixus.com/products/25298/BX80557E6750/Intel/

Newegg seems to think Intel's price cuts are specifically to increase their profit margin.

anything else i can lower?suetracy

Well, if you really want to cut more, you could save a bit on a slightly lower end monitor like:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001087

($50 less after rebates)

Also, just noticed you don't seem to have a case listed... Are you using your old one?

It's cheap so you can get this with it too... for only $20...

will do, I already decided that i was spending to much I just wanted other ppl's input.

but by the way is this RAM slower than this Ram? And should I try and get the balistix for $65 before the mail-in rebate expires after today? And do the balistix work with the P35 DS3R? thankssuetracy

well until 2marro the balistix have a $45 mail-in rebate so there cheaper and faster, my question is will they work in the

P35 DS3R mobo? and will they accept the mail-in rebate if I buy them on the last valid day of the rebate?

I don't know why people answer RAM questions if they don't know how RAM works... The Crucial Ballistix are faster than the A-Data... Period... End of sentence! It doesn't matter if you overclock or not! They are both rated to run at the same frequency, but the Crucial RAM has lower latency (that is how many clock cycles it takes to do certain things). The most important one is Column Address Strobe (CAS) latency (first number in the 4-4-4-12 or 5-5-5-18.), which is how many clock cycles it takes to retrieve data from a specific column in memory. This is the function that is performed most often.

So when running at 800MHz, it will take 4 clock cycles on the Crucial or 5 clock cycles on the A-Data. This is not a huge difference considering all the other things that happen while your computer is running, but it results in a couple of extra FPS when gaming. Hey, every little bit helps right?

As for the fact that the Crucial also overclocks higher, yeah that is true too, but it has nothing to do with the fact that is has different timings /latency.

oops i ment to post g-skills but anyway, which of these two should i buy?

these or these?

both ar g-SKILLS so they both should work well with the p35 DS3R im guessing

Don't go with the DDR400 RAM that won't fit. I would go with the Crucial Balistix aboveand hope for the rebate... or you could go with this OCZ which has enhanced cooling:

$85.99 after $40 rebate (I have received rebates from OCZ in the past).

Before you start flaming people you should read my post carefully. Maybe I worded it wrong, but w/e. I never once said the ballistix will overclock higher because of their latencies. Its because of their micron D9 chips, but I didn't mention that in my previous posts because it would have been irrelevant. Also, the A-DATA modules automatically configure to 4-4-4-12 on most boards, including the P35-DS3R. So it would be exactly the same speed as the Ballistix modules at default settings. I recommended him the white g.skill modules, the ones with 4-4-3-5 timings because they are faster than the ballistix modules and are known to be compatible with the p35-ds3r board. lower latencies will also benefit him by giving him slightly faster speed, although he might not notice it cuz the difference is so small. I know exactly how RAM works, but I'm trying to keep it simple because this is the OPs first time building a PC and he doesn't know as much as either of us about these things. there ya go. BTW, crucial's rebates arent reliable. Neither are Patriots. I would go with Corsair XMS2 modules (black and purple ones) or OCZ platinum revision 2 modules. But try to avoid mail in rebates if possible.

ill just go with the $88 g-skills

Sorry for the flames, they were not directed at you specifically.Your post said

the a-data will be the same exact speed as the crucial ballistix SLI_Yoshi

and I have seen posts all over that say RAM with lower latencies will only improve performance if you are overclocking. That is what I was referring to... also why I didn't quote a specific message earlier.
