If anyone has any suggestions or anything about what I can get with the same or better performance for a lesser price that would be appreciated. And if you had a product around my range and you recommend highly. Just anything and I pretty sure all this stuff will be compatible with each other
 
Hi, just some thoughts. From what I know 600w will do the trick, but if I was in your situation I would use more power, just opens more options and leaves breathing room. I would suggest the OCZ 700w. I use it for a dual core rig with an 8800 GTX. Overkill for me, perhaps, but I myself hate cutting things short.
Also just so that you know 20" and 22" monitors use the same resolution. I've never used a 22", but it is the same resolution spread over more screen. The 24" is the next one up that goes higher in resolution as well as size. I've never used a 22", but I thought I'd let you know. Other than that I'd have to say it's a great system, and even with it the way it is, it's a great system. I would just up the wattage, that's all.

haha I would go to the 24 but its just money is still a issue here.

I was just wondering there is a vista ultimate and a vista ultimate system builder which is cheaper. Can I get the system builder? Sorry don't know much about this.
 
I think you are paying way to much for a case. I wouldn't pay anymore than $70 for a case. You also haven't picked a motherboard yet.
 
Yeah...the full tower case's are more expensive. I just don't want to get a mid and not have space. I personally want a mid just odn't want to deal with space problems. Yeah you're right..still deciding on the motherboard...
 
The LG screen is nice but I have this screen and it's the nicest 22'' I have ever seen! It's the same price as the LG. A few of my friends have 22'' screens and the Samsung blows them away. I would recommend it to anybody.

As for the case....they are right, don't pay that much for a case. You can save at least $70 and put that money into a better graphics card. Here is the case I have and I am very happy with it, tons of room and looks great, pictures don't do it justice. I had to add high CFM fans but all in all for about $90 total, it's a great case.
XION II Black Steel ATX Mid Tower for $60

With the extra money bump up to at least a 9800 GTX+, they have some really good sales right now.

EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX+ Superclocked Edition for $185

Post what motherboard you want to get.
That's just my recommendations for you :)

That really does look like a great board that 2048Megabytes recommended for ya. It only has 1 PCI-e x16 slot....but with a decent high end card one is all you need.

+1 for the motherboard find by 2048Megabytes
 
I just wanted to point out that the case has a $70 discount if you combo it with a Q6600, which he is also buying. so the case is really only a $100.
