i'd go with the e6600 for the 4mb cache less than a hundred more but should improve your audio encoding

there have been some problems with ocz memory lately
i have the cas 4 version of this cas 5 ram http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145590

i would go for media center over home if pro is too far out of budget

I actually had those Corsairs in my cart my build for a long time..maybe I will go back to them ...

If you are buying any OS (xp) get the coupon upgrade. You can get the upgrade now and save it for 6 months when Vista is ready for prime time
For casual gaming the 8800 might be overkill, but it is a bit more future proof, you decide
