Hi All,
For some reason I can't get this list to show up in the public list in New Egg, but below is the components I would like critiqued before I would order. I have ~$2,300 to spend on a computer and I was trying to build one from ground up. After much research and reading a ton of reviews and some suggestions from various posts by you guys, here is what I have come up with:

Again, I am definitely open for any final tweaks to these components. I just want the best and most powerful combos I can get for $2300. I mostly use my computer for gaming. I would say 90% of the time. I want to play Age of Conan and maybe some of the lastest FPS games. I just want to finally be able to use a games fullest graphical potential. I think I can accomplish that with $2,300.
Well thank you all for you help.
