Hey everyone! I'm gonna be startin college in the fall, so I don't have the money to do so yet, but I'm gonna save part of the money i get this summer and put it towards building an awesome gaming pc. In the meantime, I do have a fairly decent laptop to keep me goin (2.0GHz dc processor, 2GB 800MHz memory, 120GB 7200rpm SATA HDD)....and to carry around campus after i do build my rig :D

Anyway, let me know what you guys think of this build:

Case: Antec 900
PSU: Corsair 520HX
Motherboard: ASUS P5K Pro
CPU: Intel Core2Duo E8400
RAM: A-Data ADQVE1A16K
Graphics card: EVGA Nvidia 8800GTS 512MB
Sound card: none
Hard Drive(s): Western Digital Caviar SE16 640GB

Hoping to keep total cost below $1,500

That's a terrific setup. If you can swing it, a little larger monitor would be worth it.

Otherwise, its perfect.
