Hey, I'm looking to build a new computer and wanted to know if some of you guys will throw together a list of items and specs. I will be using it for highend gaming (bf2, doom3 etc.) and also for extensive multitasking. I want the best computer possible for my budget of $1500. Thanx in advance.
 
AMD Athlon 64 San Diego 4000+ $368.00
DFI NF4 SLI INFINITY Motherboard $124.99
Western Digital Raptor WD360GD 36.7GB 10,000 RPM $111.00
Western Digital Raptor 74GB 10,000RPM $170.00
Corsair 1gb ram $104.50
Corsair 1gb ram $104.50
eVGA Geforce 7800GT 256MB PCI $351.00
Thermaltake Tsunami Case $99.99
Ultra ULT31554 X-Connect 500W PSU $84.99
Liteon DVD 16x + CD-RW 52x32x52 Combo Drive $36.50
Samsung Floppy drive $10.49

Total Price $1493 with Zipzoomfly (minus the Floppy and graphic card)

This will run every game to its fullest with little load time with the Hard drives.
 
I would say get a better SLI motherboard, say the MSI Neo4 Platinum SLI or the DFI Lanparty SLI-DR and lose the extra gig of RAM, 2gb seems a little extensive and could be used on something more important.

do u need everything including the monitor, keyboard and mouse?
 
I will need a keyboard, mouse, and headphones w/ mic. I have a monitor and speakers already. I'm leaning towards an amd dual core if that helps any. Thanx a bunch for the replies and keep em coming.
