I need suggestions on hardware for a new C2D build. I'm just a general user of a PC. I am not a hard core gamer but would like to be able to play the new titles from time to time. Home Theatre is a possibility. I don't need Raid nor do I intend to overclock. I prefer ASUS brand. Was looking at the P5B DLX WIFI. Too much board? What do you think.

I would visit www.monarchcomputer.com and call up there sales team. I have 2 of there systems a furia with a Athlon 5000 and a Axis (2 ) with core duo. What I liked was the fact you can pick and choose every item from the board to the brand of memory.
and there sales guys speak English.
If not I would I would check out alien ware.
Also make sure you get a system that supports Microsoft vista.

you can either

1. do a search on these forums for 'new build' 'rate my build' 'what you think of these specs?' and it will give you a lump of choices for people who have ask the exact same thing.

2. tell us your maximum budget, and if you have any components you wish to reuse or keep.
