Default my new parts, please read and check before I order, many thanks in advance

Hi,
I just want to run this past the people on the board before I buy these parts in.

I am upgrading my PC as it is 3 years old and it is a intel penitum 4,

it was fine when I was just editing on Pinnacle studio 9 and 10, but since installing adobe premiere elements 2.0 it has slowed down, it is use able but I have noticed if that if I'm watching an effect to see how my project is going and I stop it, I get a little delay Ie, I have to wait of the thumbnails of the video to load back up on the video timeline all the way along the screen up until where the scroll bar point is.

It all started when my comouter wouldnt switch on because of my power supply, so I decided to get a quiet power supply as it does get abit noisey. I decided to just go for it and upgrade it now, as a faster computer is always good.

Anyway I am saving money as my dv capture card it fine, my creative audgy sound card is fine, my dvd writer is fine.

My 260 Gig hardrive with operating system is fine
my 300 Gig video editing storge drive is fine, but almost full as it is full of dv captured video from various projects I am still on with.

So this is what I am getting to go with the parts I'm keeping ( links with full details included)
