going by msy prices...
DS3P $163
Q6600 $299
2gb adata 667 ram $50 ** not corsair
320g seagate $102
512mb gigabyte 9600 GT $209
pioneer 215bk sata dvdrw $37
antec sonata III $175
= 1035 ? (if i looked up/done calc all correctly)
cpu is fine.. mobo, do you really need the P version over regular DS3? ...
I'm out of the loop with video cards, can't comment there
I think overpriced cases are O_o, but anyways, might suit your needs
also I'd put money into buying a decent HSF for the CPU and overclock the out of it. if not overclocking, go amd.
edit: 1) could always extend video card budget and get the top of the line ati 3870 for ~$270 instead
2) espec don't see much point in getting that case if you're not gonna oc .. |

yeah, dont get that video card. its not good enough for gaming and its overkill for just surfing the web.
from the supcom forums.

8800GT
are the three worthwhile purchases, with the 8800 being the most expensive and the most powerful. |
id get the 8800GT for $235ish. everything else looks the goods (as far as i know, im a year behind the tech). |
