I changed the CPU and GPU like suggested and I also changed the Power Supply to a 650w ps rather then the 850w ps I had listed above.
 
now you listen to me...


get an Acer 22" widescreen...

get faster RAM... most motherboards say they support up to 800MHz, but will do 1066.

HAVE I TAUGHT YOU NOTHING??!?!??! NEVER..... EVER!!!!

get a Rosewell PSU, get a Xion Supernova 600W Modular... it's what I got, and I'm cool 8)

and for gods sake. get a copperhead mouse to match that keyboard.

My votes for the Corsair 520 watt myself and I would get corsair XMS2 DDR2-800 ram instead. The ram you chose is value ram, if your determined to go with kingston at least get the Hyper X stuff.

Because MSI is not that great?

Well msi isn't that bad as you make it sound, the only problem i had with their products is that once i had to rma one because it was defective but i got the new one working perfectly without any problem after the rma and still kicking ass :p

well you can always say... why not spend another 20 or so here and get one step up... but then suddenly you've added hundreds of dollars. I would say corsair psu as well, and lightscribe is totally if you want to use it or not so if you think you'll label cds with it... get it and if not there's no need.
