What you could do is build a comp. on one of those sites and search for the components you selected on newegg and buy them seperately. Might save you some money.
 
I built a k-rad 31337 system for about $1000 that will r0x0rZ pwn n00bs in games... too bad I don't play any.
 
 
yes that looks good except if i were you i would buy a cheaper CPU, and if you're not overclocking, there's no reason to buy that heatsink. also, i dont know about the monitor, ive never heard of that company.
another thing, a new generation of video cards is coming out, i would suggest you wait a few weeks and pick up a 7800GT for around $400 - it should be much better than the 6800GT u chose. i would suggest buying a cheaper CPU and putting more money toward the video card, as that's the most important component for games.
all of the other choices are very good.
also, dont forget to buy a power supply.
 
maybe it goes over the money i spected but i think this is the best choice

oh maybe it goes over 1700 but you ppl think thats a perfect gaming option ?
 
nice, but I am not a fan of the lian li case, IMO they are over rated. I would look at the coolermasters and the silverstone cases in the same price range; maybe even an antec or god forbid a thermaltake case.

As for the rest of the machine it is very respectable in that price range.

If you don't want to build, but buy here are a few choice boxes.

Dell XPS Gen 4 when they are on sale
ABS Ultimate M5^64
Alienware Area 51 (though way overpriced)
 
thats truth and i wanr to build it because i looked over the alienware computers and the prices were crazy 4 what they were really giving u. but i think this computer will rock my world. and another question is there really a big difference between this video card and a gforce 6800ultra?
 
If you think your going to run SLi soon, then you will probably want to look at some good PSU's.
 
i dont suggest getting a coolermaster PSU, get one from a company liek Antec, OCZ, PCP&P, Zippy, or Sparkle.
here is a good deal on a nice PSU: http://shop4.outpost.com/product/4455926?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG
also, i would get Windows XP Pro not Home.
and that hard drive only has 2mb cache, i would get at least 8mb cache.. also why not get an SATA HDD, or since you are already spending lots of money, i would go for a 74GB WD Raptor.
 
yes but i would still get SATA

for today's games a 6800 Ultra is sufficient, but in a year or so you'll be glad you bought the 7800.

what does the the sli and the vivo does xD

SLI means that you can use two video cards instead of one to get a performance increase in very GPU-intensive games. The motherboard you selected supports SLI, which means later you can upgrade by adding a second 7800GT. I'm not quite sure what vivo is, I think it stands for Video In Video Out, and it lets you hook up your PC to a cable line and use you PC as a TV. I might be wrong about that though.

only if there's a sale.

also with a system like that with gaming purposes a wd raptor is pretty essential. and regardless if you have an external hd you definitely should not be using that for your os and games. take a look at the disk storage forum and immerse yourself in the world of disk storage. and like others said don't skimp on the psu. also if you don't need the extra features found in xp pro then just stick with home. and if you want a 17" lcd check out the ones on newegg made by samsung and acer and try not to go higher than 12ms.

hard core gaming xD
 
yah, speicaly if you overclock, has a higher rated clock than the processer you picked out, and it has an unlocked multiplyer

make sure if you get it, get san-deiago core

and add another dvd rom drive, get a dvd burner, and a dvd rom drive.........really never hurts to have backup in case, plus it looks neat in cases :p
and you should get the lcd i linked in my former post, its much better than that phillips one, cost about 80ish more bucks, but plenty worth it
