I want a computer that can do everything well, keeping gaming at the top of the list. No video editing. I would also like it to be upgradable, which is why I chose this specific motherboard. I plan on overclocking, but I am new to it so I one be doing anything advanced. This is the build I came up with. Let me know what you think about it.

-Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 Conroe 2.66GHz LGA 775 Processor Model BX80557E6750 - Retail
-EVGA 320-P2-N811-AR GeForce 8800GTS 320MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Video Card
-Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop

-Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 ST3320620AS (Perpendicular Recording Technology) 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - OEM

Don't need monitor, keyboard, mouse, or windows vista, have them all. Same thing goes with speakers and I plan on getting sound card later on. If you see anything you would change, let me know what and why. What do you guys think of the RAM, Harddrive, and DVD burner in particular, don't have much experience with those items. Is the case any good and will the PSU that comes with it support this build? Do I need to buy any new cooling devices (like a heatsink) if I plan on overclocking? Thanks!
 
are you doing major gaming. Like are you waiting for crysis?
if so use the 8800GTS 768mb video card if you can spend the money. tell me if that helps
Usually i would suggest the antec 900 case. (its the best my own opinion) and get a different psu usually the company that gives you a psu is crap. get like a 650 watt psu exspecially if you plan on getting the video card i suggested. are you buying from newegg.com????
 
The only suggestion would be that you seriously need a good psu, not those crappy ones that comes with the case, at least 500watts and 30 amps
