Well my personal plan is to sometime in the next couple of month get:
Asus nForce4 motherboard socket 939
nVidia video card
appropriate athlon64 cpu
1GB dual channel ram (DDR400 unless DDR2 somehow takes off amazingly
fast)
Plextor DVD writer
WD SATA drive.
I will probably reuse my sb live platinum sound card or get an audigy,
or put up with the onboard audio. Onboard ethernet and firewire and
such should all be fine.
So I hope once those parts are all released, they will work, although I
would be surprised if they didn't.
