If I wanted to use an Intel processor instead of the AMD, what would be a good choice?

I'm sure for the things I listed I can get a cheaper computer, but I'm talking about the computer I'm planning on building. Can I get something cheaper for the type of computer I'm building. I'm basically going with It_shiro's first post, minus the video card and with a new monitor and stuff.

Okay, so I totaled everything up, it's about 900ish. Is that a reasonable amount for the computer I'm building...

Okay, thanks about the case. Yeah, everyone tells me to just buy one :) But wheres the fun in that?

What are some good monitors?

Okay, I'll do that... but can I use that other case :) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144216

Yeah, I said stuff like the HP series, and random games bought off sites like Big Fish. Nothing as major as the Sims though. Some tycoon games, some Nancy Drew. I'd also like to run Vista and lots things simultaneously.

So the Corsair PSU would go better with the Apevia case and Raedon GPU. Are there anyother parts that need to be changed from what you originally said??

So I like this case out of the three, it seems the most reasonable: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144216 Also I think this was the PSU you originally listed in your first post: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171037 I think thats a PSU...or is...

Okay, so I actually decided against the 5.1 speakers, and thought maybe these would be okay: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16836121130 For cases, how would something like this go: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811144209...

Okay so any case that is an ATX (what is that) that has 120 mm case fans will go with all the parts you listed.

Okay, so what are some good 5.1 systems. Nothing too elaborate. Also what are some other cases again, the Apevias looked nice, but are they compatible with your setup??

Yeah I figured, everyone pretty much told me. My budget and stuff are on this link: http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1443718 If you want to help or anyone else, please do. All the information is there. And I haven't bought any parts, just making a list first.

Also, lt_shiro, what are some other cases that will work with your setup. Since that is the only thing I will actually see, I sort of wanted to look at a few before I chose one. I wanted something that looks fun, alot of the Apevias looks pretty cool. Will any of those work?

Okay, so if the motherboard has 7.1 support, don't I have to buy a 7.1 sound system? Again, what is the optical disc drive? Is that just the cd/dvd burner? Without the 4870, would the computer in general be slower when I play, because I thought the built in card feeds off the CPU and makes it...
