Just got back from 9 month Army deployment. In my absence I haven't been able to keep on the latest tech news so I need your guys help. I need a new system fast

I got $1000 alloted for the new comp.
Already have the monitor, case, dvd burner, mouse, keyboard etc... Just need recommendations on good CPU, GPU, mobo, PSU, Heatsink, HDD.

I'll be using it for some light gaming, folding, photoshop, and a whole lot of dvd burning.

Thanks for any suggestions.
 
I dont have time right now to get exact parts and shit but basicly go with AMD 64 CPU, ATI Radeon 9800 Pro, if you are OCing mushkin/hyper x/xms ram otherwise corsair value select/crucial/kingston, true430 psu, stock heatsink is fine if your not OCing otherwise i dont know, and get a 36GB raptor for your boot drive and id wait for a sale for a nice 100+ GB drive, i got a seagate 200GB 8MB cache for 100.
