You are going way ahead of yourself. You are attempting to build a computer and have no idea what the compenents do and how they function. You really should read the 101s in atleast cpu / video card / mother board / and psu sections. You will learn sooo much. GL

Looks pretty good, but i'd get the AMD X2 3800+ over that processor. It'll perform significantly better with newer multithreaded games/apps. Also, I think that video card comes with a free motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130238

And I'd post this config in the Desktop Computers forum. Someone (probably Preator) will probably be able to come up with something better.
