Its been a while since i learned about computers, or visited this website, and since i decided to build my own gaming pc, well i needed some refreshening, im looking for a 1500$ gaming pc, im not with the newest tech at the moment, and i need someones oppinion, dont need any of the other accessories, mouse, keyboard, moniter, just the major stuff, GPU, CPU, power supply, mother board, anything you can name, price can go over 1500$, just not over kill 
May I suggest you look at the How to Ask For New Build Advice sticky thread? 
ok, well when i was planning to build a computer, i had the Q6600 and like a 9800GTX, i havent been up to times lately, so if theres anything better, bang for the buck, would be nice, games i would be playing... Supreme commander, command and conquer, spore, the 9800GTX can definnetely play all these games, good and beyond, but with the fast changing tech i might want something that might last me a bit longer, i picked out the Q6600 because supereme commander is said to run better on quads, but the CPU can be anything to fit in with the specifics, i would also want to overclock, even if i dont know how
