Last time, I decided to save my money and wait for i5 and window 7 to come out. This time, I have decided it is time to build my new computer again.

The spec of the the current system I'm using right now
Pentium 4 1.8GHz
1Gb DDR Ram
36GB IDE Harddrive
Fx5200 GPU
IDE CD Rom

And this is the build for my new computer :3 ----------------------Edited

My budget is about $1000. Is it worth it to spend more than $1000 on a pc? I'm looking for the best bang for the buck. I probably won't be upgrading my computer for a long time. I will be using this computer to play game mostly, watching videos and using photoshop. The games I'm looking forward to play is L4D2, SC2, Diablo 3, Massive Effect.
