Hi setupthebomb a few comments for you:

-What is the budget for this build? Could you give some more details in terms of where you might buy and what models you have choosen for hard disk.

- For gaming go with an extra 2Gb of RAM - you will notice the difference when using Vista. Also try to find modules that aren't the value ones. You will see better preformance and stability if you wish to overclock in the future. You may also want ones with a heat sink on them.

- If you are going to overclock you will require a better CPU cooler. Try an Artic cooler freezer 7 pro.

- Wait for the new NVidia and ATi graphics cards. They are due out in around 3-4 weeks and it seems pointless to buy now when new technology is just around the corner. Even if you don't buy a new card you could at least expect a price drop in older cards.

- Why are you buying a case with a PSU and then buying another PSU as well? Seems a little strange!

- You would also be advised to go for a better copy of Vista. Basic really is the basic version.

Hope this gets you started.

Also you would be advised to go for a different PSU.

The X2 model falls into tier 4 for this build you ought to be looking for a tier 2/3 supply.
