Ok, I am looking to build me a nice gaming computer. I am looking to spend around $1,500 to $2,000. One thing I am wanting is nice LCD monitor, as I am wanting to use it for my Xbox360 as well. I'm just looking for a PC that will run every game out there today nicely, as well as ones to come.

I've heard that NewEGG is the place to go?
 
CPU-Core 2 Duo E6600
Mobo-EVGA 680i SLI
Ram-2 gigs of Corsair DDR2-800
GPU-8800 GTX
PSU-Corsair 620HX 620 watt
Case-Antec P180
HDD Storage- Western Digital 320 Gb
HDD Primary- Western Digital 74 Gig 10000 RPM
DVD-18x LG DVD Burner
And a 24" Monitor but thats proably not big enough

If that comes out to too much drop the mobo to a Gigabyte 965P DS3, the video card to a 8800 GTS and the 10k RPM HDD.

To save a little (or maybe put it toward a bigger, better LCD) I'd knock down the drive to a 250 GB and get rid of the Raptor completely. I'd also add a Freezer 7 Pro with some Arctic Silver, but everything else looks great by Froboy.
 
I found this on NewEGG:

Audio: 6 Channel Surround Sound
Cache Per Processor: 2MB L2 Cache
Graphics: 2 x NVIDIA GeForce 7600GS 256MB Video Card - running SLI Mode
Hard Drive: 320GB SATA
Memory: 2GB DDR2-800
Optical Drive 1: 18X DL DVD+/-RW Drive
Optical Drive 2: 16X DVD ROM
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6400(2.13GHz)
Processor Main Features: 64 bit Dual Core Processor
Recommended Usage: Gaming

For $1200. I was thinking about just buying it and not worry about buying seperate parts. How will this hold up? Will it run the latest games smoothly?
 
2 x 7600GS = Fails, mgiht as well go wiht one good graphics card....

I would also like to see what the mobo is.......

Like others have said, I would wait until: 1. the e6600 comes down in price, and 2. mid-range DX10 cards come out
