First Off, I'd like to say "hey". I just joined in the forums.

My recent computer's motherboard died on me, so to say, and I decided to build a new one since it's a little out of date anyway. I plan on resusing my disk drives, and some extra fans i have and possibly my ram. I've got a budget of about $650-750 and I just want to see if anyone may have some suggestions. I'm kind of trying to build a system geared torwards gaming.

Looks good. One suggestion though. Wait a week or two and buy the 8800GT which is supposed to be both better and cheaper than the 8800GS.
