More Information

This will be my first build. I plan on attempting to overclock it, but at this point I'm not sure how that works. Will I need better/additional fans and heatsinks? Anyway, please give me your comments. I'm trying to keep the total cost below $2k and so far I'm at about $1500 w/monitor and speakers so I have some room for improvements if you guys think they're worthwhile. I plan on using the system for gaming almost exclusively.

We have a winner.

The 8800GTS 512MB will be a good match for a 22 incher. The only thing you might wanna consider is an aftermarket cpu cooler for overclocking. Ninja, Infinity, Tuniq, U120E, Typhoon & Geminii are good ones.
