Hello I am going to build my first computer and i'm going to try to keep it under 500$ for now, here is my build. This computer will primarily be playing games like far cry 2. what operating system should i use i was thinking about windows vista home premium oem so that way i could keep in in budget or should i go with windows 7 beta? please give suggestions i wont be xfire ing or overclocking. and my last question is this a good build for the price?

Thank you all
