not sure what you mean about the ram. p4 2.8 should be 400fsb, HT right? pc3200 ram runs at 800mhz which is a perfect match.
what parts did you choose for the price so far? like is it a plextor drive for 180, or a lite on which is just as good for 90? saving bucks here and there could get that 2nd hard drive for a raid setup, which would be a huge benefit and would help offset that she's not investing in a real time editing card like a pinnacle or matrox right now.
I might choose this Gigabyte board over the abit too. 1 less firewire and no spdif out, but has onboard sata raid and the same chipsets. 50 bucks less expensive too. just stuff to think about..
