Hi everyone,
Im new to this forum but i´ve been reading it and of course tom´s hardware for a while now. Im planing to buy a new PC in the next couple months and even though i plan to do a lot more research on hardware until then, I´ve decided to create a setup, based on what I think I know and what I want.
Im gonna use it everyday, for every kind of applications.. and well, that includes gaming (which is the reason for looking for a bit more performance).
The point of showing this here is so you can take a QUICK LOOK at it, and tell me if I´m completely lost, or going in the wrong direction with any of the components, taking into consideration the use of the computer and that the budget should stay close to the one shown. As I have plenty of time this is gonna change, and as I said im gonna keep reading and asking here and there.. I just want to know if this starting point is good:
(prices in euros and specs in spanish.. but I think there isnt much to understand apart from the figures)
Asus P5Q Pro: http://www.alternate.es/html/builder/proddetail.html?class=mainboard&artno=GPEAE2&source=builder%2FcircleFrame&source2=coList 109 €
Intel® Core 2 Quad Q6600: http://www.alternate.es/html/builder/proddetail.html?class=cpu&artno=HPGI54&source=builder%2FcircleFrame&source2=coList 159 €
GeIL Kit DIMM 4 GB DDR2-800: http://www.alternate.es/html/builder/proddetail.html?class=ram&artno=ICIE8N&source=builder%2FcircleFrame&source2=coList 99 €
Seagate ST3500320AS Barracuda 7200.11 : http://www.alternate.es/html/builder/proddetail.html?class=harddiskSATA&artno=A9BS55&source=builder%2FcircleFrame&source2=coList 57 €

That makes 592 €. The rest of the components I would re-use from my old PC initially.
Any comments are welcome, Thanks very much for taking the time to read me !
UPDATES: - Club 3D CGAX-4852DDF (ATI GRAPHICS 4850) goes for Gainward HD4850 (same price)
