i am looking into building a new heavy duty pc for gaming and what not and i just wanted some opinions on the parts i have looked at so far, what i was thinking was:

-Intel core 2 duo conroe E6700 (ES)
-XFX nVidia 8800gtx
-Thermaltake Big Typhoon (since the ES version of the cpu doesnt come with Heatsink/Fan)
-Thermaltake 750W Toughpower PSU
-OCZ 2GB PC6400 DDR2 800Mhz Dual Channel Gold

im undecided on the motherboard, i cant decide between the Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 and the Asus P5W DH Deluxe so any 1 who could shed some light on that would be cool.

Also i was thinking about overclocking in future but i dont kno much about it so any advice on that would be much apperciated,
Thanks in Advance for any help

I would get the P5B deluxe over the P5W or DS3 myself. do you already have the ES E6700? or are you getting it off ebay or something.
