P4PE-X and Celeron 2.7Ghz - good combo?

Planning on building a system with this combination, basically so much
cheaper than a full P4 chip.

Been using a Cel 800Mhz for 3-4 years now and 100% reliable and I like
reliability!

I know it wn't be happy running intensive games at the highest
resolutions but for half decent gaming-this should be OK with 512MB in
it?

Cheers,

Tony

Got a 2.0 Celeron running on a P4PE (at 2.8G)with 512MB that runs 24/7,
no problems. Gaming is fine, although your vid card is more than half of
the gaming equation these days.

which vid card are u using?
