Hey,

Im putting together a new system for christmas, I bought GTA IV and World at War but at the same time my 8800 ultra decided to overheat.

I got a few things in mind and was hoping some poeple would point out the pro's and con's of each part and help my pick the final parts.

Motherboard;

Nvidia 780i or a Maximum II, or point out any others.

CPU

q6600, e9550, q9400 or point out one thats better and not too expensive.

GPU

Nvidia GTX 260, Geforce 9800gx2, Ive always went with XFX for my cards so Ill most likely get a XFX XXX GTX 260, Im not sure on which brand is best like EVGA etc, if someone could help me on that would be appreciated.

RAM

Corsair dominator, either 2 or 4gb ddr3 at 1600mhz.

i dont know anything about ram


I already have;

Samsung 24"
Steelseries Siberias Headphones
Razer Lycosa Keyboard
Mx Revolution mouse (i like wireless)
1.5 TB of hardrives (sata 2)
And ill prob buy an antec case.

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
