Ok, there you go:

Video Card: BFG Tech GeForce 7800GTX 512 & another BFG Tech GeForce 7800GTX 512
Memory: Four stick of 1Gb Corsair XMS3500LL Pro
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda UltraAta 200GB 7200rpm

I wont be buying speakers, as I prefer earbuds. I'll buy:

Shure E4c

All of this at a price of $5520 Us dollars, according to newegg prices.
I think new Dell's machine will be around that.

Please tell me what do you think, tell me if I exagerating on some parts, if I'm missing something or if something doesnt make sense. Thanks.

By the way, which OS is better for gaming?
Windows 2000, Windows XP Professional or Windows Media Center Edition? Keeping in mind that I'll only us it for gaming as for everything else I'll be using SuSE Linux.
 
wow, thats quite the beast your building there. I'm not sure if money's really an issue here, but Newegg dosen't seem to have the best price on everything like they used to. You could probably save a couple hundred by going with a couple of vendors.
 
I am deciding first if this is the setup I watn, and next I will be lloking for the best prices.
Thanks for the tip seniorpaul.

What PSU would you recommend jen4950?

Depends on how much you want to spend; Even their mid-range units are comparable to high-end PSU's by other manufacturers.
