Well its been about atleast 4 years since I built a computer (back when AMD 2000XP was champ) so I find myself a relative noob once again. So any help and or suggestion would be great but here is what I am thinking of so far... (cost is a factor)

1. Mobo: GIGABYTE GA-EP35-DS3L
2. CPU: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 3.0GHz
3. Video Card: MSI GeForce 8800 GT NX8800GT 512M OC
4. Memory: mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
5. Power Supply: Antec BP550 Plus 550W (modular connections)
6. OS: Microsoft Windows Vista 64-Bit Home Premium

As far as the case goes I will just have to find what I can here in hawaii as the shipping cost is almost as much if not more the the cases. Over 100 bucks for shipping is a lil nuts for just the case lol.

That is what I have so far so if there are any cons in what I thinking here please let me know :)

Oh and as far as price goes after rebate this will be running me $675
