Thanks Naveen58.

Will the i7 860 be a better choice for my application?
Also does this config allow for higher than 4GB RAM.
I noticed there is a HX450 as well - will that be sufficient for this Mobo, proc, GPU config.

I am leaning towards the GTX260 since it has CUDA and will assist encoding apps.
