Ok thanks :) but the E6850 will still give me a pretty sweet gaming computer right? I pretty much play cod4 and wow.
So I ordered all of my parts and everything has got here except for my E8400 processor which now the website tells me it may not be here until april sometime. I want to build my computer so I know if...

Ok cool thanks. I have a question about OEM parts, Im going to order an OEM hard drive, and speakers. Are there other parts\cables that I will need to purchase for those things?
Alright thanks a lot, and ya that makes sense about the whole rma situation. And I think it would be wise to order almost everything together to make sure everything is in working order.. So...

Motherboard...
Ok cool thanks a lot! I think the only other thing i need is a keyboard and mouse, unless i need the modem and router and such? With the stuff being OEM does that mean I need to buy extra cables? Oh...

OS...
Would you recommend a 400gb hard drive or go higher since the prices are not much higher? And sorry I am somewhat new to this, is an optical drive required?
Hey all I need help with my build. I have about $1400-$1500 to spend for a good gaming computer, and that includes the monitor and hopefully OS as well because I dont have anything right now. Thanks...
I was just wondering what would be a better choice of motherboard to go with an E8400 processor. The Asus PK5C or the gigabyte GA-P35C?
Ha easy guys. Sorry didn't mean to get everyone arguing :) Here is kind of an updated rig.
cpu: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0GHz
mobo: Not quite sure yet :\ hopefully i can get a good...
Ok thanks for the advice. Here are the two hard drives I mentioned earlier and I cant see much of a difference besides the extra 100gb.
