I still say the Q6600

Motherboard, a bit overpriced, isn't it!?

Get a hard drive with a 32MB cache, like this one - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148294

PSU look good

Everything else is good.

the MOBO is not overpriced i don't think
a HDD will only use about 2-3MB cache so there is not realy a point in getting a 32 an this 640G HDD is quite fast infact it about on par with the 150G raptor

but it is the same price for a better cache.
