Default Gaming Computer

Hi, I am building my first computer ever. It will be used for gaming. I'm trying to keep the price around $2000. I wont be OCing and wont be using SLI since one 8800gtx will be enough for a while but i want to have it as an option for the future.

I know, the single 8800gtx will be able to run everything i would ever want to play no problem. What i am more concerned about, is that i have everything that will suport the 8800 so it can run full strength. I dont want to be underpowering my card.

The link of the Ram is wrong. It cost $280 instead of $169
With the price under $170, you could choose:

or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227089
or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145034

For the DVD-RW, Why not choosing the OEM? It is cheaper
