My buddy currently has a brand new tower/Hardrive and a GTX 560.
Now we just need to upgrade his rig from ye old LGA 775.
Hows this look guys? SLI is not important hence the micro ATX, also we will be running 2 4G sticks of DDR3..

I've never built such a system, but I think that the Geforce 7025/nForce 630a combination is basically an old DDR2 system that has been modified to run DDR3. I believe that it has some on-board bandwidth limitations. Whether those matter in real-world use, I don't know.
If it was my build, I'd probably prefer to spend more and get an AMD chipset that's a little more up-to-date. You or your chum may feel otherwise.
