i don't remember for sure...i'll do the parts now. keep in mind this stuff is cheaper now then when i bought it.
these are also rough guesses...i can't remember for sure.

motherboard: 110
processor : 175
soundcard: 35
videocard:100 (just orderd a leadtek 6800 GT, so 415 now )
160gb IDE :110
80GB SATA: boss gave it to me...but close to 90 bucks i imagine
CD-RW-30
DVD-RW-75
fan: 35
Case: 80
Ram: 265
Monitor: 530
=1105 for what's listed on my current sig
=1635 with monitor
=1950 with monitor and if you count my new video card instead of the other.

keep in mind i bought all my parts OEM...i really recommend buying the processor OEM and getting a separate fan...you get a better fan and it's cheaper then buying retail and it coming with a crap fan. i also buy from places i don't have to pay tax. price watch is a valuable assest to saving dough. here's some recommendations of mine...sometimes they aren't the cheapest, but they are great to deal with.
www.zipzoomfly.com--free 2nd day shipping
www.ajump.com
www.bananapc.com

i wouldn't reccomend the case i got...i really don't like it anymore.
other than that i am very pleased...i'll answer any questions...i'll try to help as much as possible.

and btw, my math might be slightly off.
