Hello,
I'm going to be getting:
Antec SLK3000B
Athlon 64 3700+ 90 nm. San Diego. 1 MB L2 Cache, 2.2 GHz
MSI K8N Neo4-F
Western Digital 74 GB 10,000 raptor
XFX GeForce 6600 GT PCIE
OCZ Gold edition 2x512 MB 2-2-2-5 DDR400
And I am thinking of quieting it with:
Artic Cooling Freezer 64 (found it for $28)
Not sure about the VGA or hard drive. Suggestions, please
Thanks!

Zalman VF700 AlCu or Cu works well on the 6600GT. I run mine at 5V (splitter included).

what about for the motherboard's northbridge?
I'll need something that will not interfere with anything..

Get a Zalman NB-47J, mod it as required. Cheap, fairly easy, and effective.
