Hi everyone,

Some years ago I was buying new equipment every half year to every year, getting mostly some stuff which could be easily be upgraded in the next season. But some time ago, probably 2 to 3 years ago I stopped doing that and haven't bought anything since then. My core2duo seems rather outdated by now and I think I should get some new fancy stuff by now - not only for Aion, but in general. But I have some issues with custumizing a fine machine.

As I'm running a nearly silent machine right now, I want to have something similar again. Also most equipment should be replaceable without getting everything new. The stuff I think I will buy would be:

Mainboard: Asus P6T SE
CPU: Intel Core i7-920 Prozessor
CPU fan: NesteQ SilentFreezer1200
RAM: G.Skill DIMM 6 GB DDR3-1333 Tri-Kit (7-7-7-18)
PSU: Zalman ZM600-HP
GPU: GigaByte GV-N98TSL-1GI (GeForce 9800GT passive cooling)
HDD: Western Digital WD6401AALS 640 GB Caviar Black
Optical Drive: Samsung SH-D162D
Case: Antec 300 (with 2-3x Tacens Ventus 12cm)
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium 64Bit (including coupon for Windows 7)

Price: €930 (excluding OS)

Do you think this will last some time? Is the i7 okay or is the core2quad more suitable?

Thanks in advance!
