Brothers, I have returned...
I want to upgrade my computer since this one keeps dying on me. I need someone to look through what I've come up with and see whether everything checks out or not. I want to stick with AMD and NVIDIA for gfx. I've looked around and so far I think these are the best bang for the buck.

MoBo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138102
Processor: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103773
GFX: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130380
RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145034
Hard Drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136075
Sound Card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16829102005
Fan: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835185125

total price: 560$

I'm also going get Windows Vista. After using it over the summer on my friend's laptop, I'm hooked. I don't need a case or cdrom/dvd. I'm using my 500W power suply and my LCD monitor.

Let me know what you all think.

Oyah, I'm not getting a Dell Darth!

I also have 4 gigs of the same mem. i love it runs great.

I was once stuck on AMD but after having this Q6600 i'll never go back just a thought. I dont think there much over 100$ now you may want to look at them if you have not done it.

Make sure the 9800 will run on your PS it recommends a 630 watts with a minimum 450 watt with 12 volt at 24 amps.

After doing some more research, I have concluded that I need to upgrade my PS.

How much would you be willing to sell your 9800gtx+ for?

O yah, Can anyone explain to me the difference in Windows vista 32vs64 bit?
