So I'm new to computer building, I have a good grasp of the tech I think. Well I'm building a gaming computer I think that I'm going to run Vista Home Premium 64 bit. I need to be able to play Crysis, Far Cry 2, and Fallout 3.
Please tell me what you think of my projected build.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

An E8400/E8500 would overclock better but there is nothing wrong with the choice you made, enjoy.

Everything looks good, But you dont need 1200watts. You could save a lot of money by going with a good 750 watt
