Your motherboard most likely comes with a gigabit network port. I'd check it out prior to ordering a network card.

WAIT TILL THE 939 pin!!!

You're buying an X800? Why am I suddenly suspicious?

You haven't listed any RAM, and I agree with Xeno.

939 pin? and I am going to start with 1gb of ram

EDIT: oh the max RAM on the MoBo is 8gb

why the hell should anyone bother to help you when you've been so consistently horrible to everybody? I hope your dam' pc goes up in smoke. You're only trying to show off how much money you've got anyway.

every day is like Sunday, every day is silent and grey..

No I am not. I am on a $1,700 budget and am trying to get some help.

Well you have been irritating people lately Snippy (eg. sw). Still, you ain't gonna be gettin' much else if you pay $500 US for an X800.

I am going to get a 9800 pro to hold me till then

Speaking of water cooling or refrigeration for the PC in general.... Has anyone given any thought to condensation and what that might do? Never mind springing a leak.
