Hi I'm wanting to build a new computer and begin with $550 for a computer I can expand to a high end one.

Things i think will be good.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136073 hard drive

I'm not sure on what cpu(most likely intel) or video card to begin with(any suggestions)
motherboard on the list i'm not sure about, but i'm looking for one I can expand on to make a high end pc
this is so far $440 including windows 7 home
Any suggestions on what will be better to begin off with will be very helpful

it woulkd be smartest to save up so when you would be upgrading and realize these new cpus out that cost the same as the ones i have to get are so much faster, why did i do this, you'd be saying thank god i didn't do that.

the x6 is a wate, no games other than fsx use over 4 cores so unless doing video or photo editing among other en/decoding heavy apps then it isn't going to be of any benefit.

But it's good to be ahead of the game for now. If you invest in a good computer now, it'll keep up for quite awhile, no? Just like buying a high quality car.

well it will be a while before the 6 cores is even used, and by then the phenoms are already a good amount slower than intel's i series cpu's so it will be time to get a new cpu by then.
