After much debate I have decided that this will be my new setup.

Nice rig, What are you running for OS? Currently I'm running Vista and it's fine however a lot of my friends still stick with XP for compatibility.

All of that is from Newegg.com, and I'm going to stick with XP pro until Vista gets a service pack.

the total is $728.00 only because I do not need to purchase... ATX case (Antec Full Tower)
Powersupply (~500 Watts)
Sound Card (Sound Balster Audagy 2)
Hard Drive (160 GB IDE)
CD-RW Drive (24x RW)
DVD Rom (16x DVD)
Floppy Disk Drive If i had to buy all of the above The PC would have cost closer to $1200.00 + S&H Still cheaper than a Dell XPS with similar specs.

thats perfect but how about you grab an E6600 intestead of the 6400 for the extra 2mb cache you will get a nice boost in some appz and gamez while also you got more MHZ in the cpu frequency 
and the price isnt that much different i think its only 60$$

That's not a bad price for a computer

All I have to say is steer clear of that motherboard. It's a piece of junk. You have maybe a 40% chance or less of getting a good one. Hope you haven't bought it yet...
I have that board, and after going through 2, all it's given me is trouble. Such as random reboots during game play, on both boards. I recommend the MSI P6N SLI-FI board, which is $109.99 on newegg.
