Alright, guys here is my first build. Going to order parts in a few days I'm going to need some suggestions on these parts. This build is for gaming. Games like MW2. Also if all parts are compatible. I also heard that the 930 stock heatstink isn't that good so I'm going to need a after market heatstink. Anothwe thing what does it mean on the motherboard when it says DDR3 2000(O.C) does it mean I can't buy stock at 2000? What OS? WIN 7 HOME OR PRO? Anything missing? Well here is what I've put together.

Code:
Intel Core i7-930

I'd drop down to a lower processor/chipset, honestly...that way you can afford a better video card. A Phenom II or i5 with a 5770/58xx is going to perform better than an i7 with a 4850.
 
As you guys said to change the processor and get a better gpu but upgrading the gpu would be easy and then the old 4850 can go in my other system. Because soon I would be upgrading to the i7 xtreme. Thanks for the suggestions. Anymore would be gladly appreciated.
 
As far as RAM speed you will need to overclock the CPU to OC the RAM in order to get to that speed.

If there is a Frys near you they have Corsair on sale this week for the same price that is 1600C7 so it will OC more than 1333c9. Basically, as the speed goes up the case speed goes down.

I would not waste money buying a 4850 though. I understand what you are saying.
 
^ You shouldn't have to OC the CPU in order to OC the RAM. On older systems where the RAM connects to the FSB, this is the case, but on the i7 the RAM connects directly to the CPU and, AFAIK, is not dependent on it to supply a clock speed.
