Any suggestions on this build? I will not be overclocking due to this being in part a work computer. 8 cores is absolutely necessary. The 8 cores will be running for days at a time, will cooling be a problem? I would like this to also be good for gaming. I could spend an extra $150 or so upgrading any of the following:

What would be an appropriate graphics card? I am willing to spend $200 - $400.
