I don't have speakers, actually...I use the headset that has the digital audio thing through USB...the brand name escapes me though...Plantronics, I think. Something like that
As for vista...I don't know. I may drop it

Is the 400 gig drive gonna be big enough? :D
How about some really freaky glow in the day light case fans? :stick

Hehe...ok, dropped Vista and the DVD burners. Dropped the video card (maybe) in favor of this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814125054

Man, I think I'm going to keep my DVD burner and stuff...and one of my HDD's (the 200 GB one). The rest will go with the system. Oh, and you'll need a case too.

yeah, I already have a burner and a drive...but I'll just keep them instead of replacing.
And yes, it'll run BF2...it's the same machine I was running it on before.
