I am building my 3rd pc mostly for 2d and 3d design but for some gaming as well. What do you think of these parts. I would like to keep the total budget under $1500 but I could extend to $1800-2000.

That should be a good build. Take a look at this video card. It's a bit more expensive, but it's faster, has a rebate, and a free game download. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=1241695&CatId=7005 Another thing you can do is wait a bit longer. AMD's new Bulldozer line should be coming out soon, perhaps by the end of the month. You might decide that you want that CPU, for you build instead.
