So, I'm looking to get a new PC, and I currently have this set-up at newegg.com. Any feedback would be much appreciated!!!

Oh, and I've already got a Lightscribe DVD+/- DL DVD Burner, so I didn't add in a dvd drive!

As for the OS, I'll probably go with Vista...

Subtotal: $1,624.89

Case: Good. As long as you get the Armor with the big side fan, they cool quite well.
HDD: It's IDE! An IDE drive in this day and age? Use this - I have one and it's excellent. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...100&Tpk=HD753LJ
GPU: The9800GTX is good, but EVGA have had a bit of a rough time with quality control recently. Use this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150287
Sound: Excessive. Unless you're a musician, a cheap PCI sound card like this will do: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829102012
Speakers: My grandad's PC has these speakers, and they're fine, but they're not exactly home theatre grade. If you like deep sounding music, films etc. you'll want something a bit beefier. For compact sound though, these are good.
PSU: Mediocre. These units are far better. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139005
Keyboard: Good. These are nice keyboards if you like your macro buttons. As a gamer keyboard, however, I like something more substantial, and recommend these - they're superb. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823175001
Mouse: Not even seen or heard of this before, but high end Logitech mice are usually pretty good.
Motherboard: You're not using SLI, so you don't need a lame SLI board. These are better: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128086
RAM: Fine.
CPU: Good, but you might want to consider this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115017

for speakers i would get these. it has a great sub woofer and sounds awesome. there is a 2.1 and a 5.1 version and they a both great.

2.1

5.1

the mouse you chose is alright but it is not that great for gaming.

sammorris,

Thanks for the great advice! I didn't know much about the soundcard, and I didn't want to have a horrible sound quality when playing games.

Will the processor you chose be able to handle most games? It says 2.4 ghz, while games may recommend 3+.

They recommend 3Ghz assuming you have a P4. A 2.4Ghz Core 2 Quad is equivalent to a P4 above 5Ghz, and that's just for one core - it has four of them.

Wow! Thanks for the quick follow-up!

Oh, and what about this monitor:

I don't really like the quality of Acer/Benq products, it seems very unpredictable. This is a safer and better bet: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001234

Thanks! My budget is $2000, and everything on newegg.com is $1999.33 after shipping!
