I want to order a computer and put it together. I know a decent amount about this stuff but i want some feedback before i drop the money on it. I'm not looking to overclock it or anything i just want a computer that will run the latest most demanding game and not need an upgrade for a while. I also want to keep it under 2 grand its at 1,500 right now. These are all the parts i have picked out and wanted to see if anyone has any feedback, opinions, advice, or sees anything i may have missed or screwed up. I included what the part is and a link to the tigerdirect page i got it off of. I'd greatly appreciate the time and help thanks.

Newegg generally has cheaper prices than tigerdirect.

Also, have you thought about going Intel instead of AMD? The new Core 2 Duo (Conroe) outperforms most AMD's in most categories. But if you want AMD, that's fine. And if you want to be able to upgrade the computer in the future, and be more future-proof, I'd go for socket AM2 instead of socket 939.
