I posted about my proposed build yesterday, and thanks to all of the advice I think I have one figured out. Graduate student, limited budget, old system, but want to game. Here we go:

And I will also be getting Vista 64 Home Premium OEM for $99.99. Takes me to just over $1000 total. How did I do? I plan on upgrading my monitor and optical drives at a little later date. Any suggestions? Places where I went wrong? Thanks in advance.
