I would go with

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E1681... Amd 64 3700 $75

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E1681... Cooler Master $40

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E1681... Ati x1900gt $155

Will do the job very well

that looks great to me! GJ! YAY!

Maby instead of a x1900GT you could get the faster, less power hungry core of a x1950 pro.

It doesn't look like the above case has a power supply so you'll have to factor that in. Take a look at this. $85 with a 400w PSU

I was also thinking about selling the sound card and going with a nicer case like a antec P180 or sonata 2. I want something very quiet because sound levels are very important to me. Would it be a good idea to sell the sound card and stick with the on board sound?

Not to hi-jack anyones thread, but I just bought a X1950 Pro today at Microcenter. Had them for $200. A little more than online, but heck, not bad for an impulse buy. Very impressed! Runs cool too.

I have the Sonata II and reallly like it and it's pretty quiet. Very easy to work in and having no PSU problems. It's currently on sale for $89 at newegg. Personally, I keep the sound card if there was anyway I could swing it. You could save some money on the sound card with something like a 7600GT, I was able to get a BFG for about $110 with a rebate. But again, I'm not a gamer so I don't put a lot of money into video cards Check this out
