I highly recommend going with an AMD Athlon 64 3200+, it will perform much better in games and is cheaper.

I would also go with a SATA/SATAII hard drive instead, since it would perform better. And it only costs a few bucks more.

And what video card are you getting?

1. Use correct punctuation, its hard to understand

2. Look at newegg.com for a good deal

3. How much are you spending total?

If you really want it to be an excellent gaming machine, I'd suggest an extra gig of ram.
