Asus P6T Deluxe V2 LGA 1366 Intel X58 Mobo - Great Choice

Intel Core i7 Bloomfield 2.66 GHZ LGA 1366 Quad Core Processor - Majority choice

Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit - Consider Pro for "XP mode"

Corsair Dominator 6 GB (3x2) 240 Pin DDR3 SDRAM 1600 Triple Channel Kit Ram - Look for lowest CAS timings in your budget range at DDR1600. Mushkin 998692 is tops w/ 6-7-6-18 at about $200 .... CAS 7 about $20 less

ASUS EAH 4890 1 GB 256 bit DDR5 Video Card - That's THG's choice at $190 - though consider 5770 or 5850 if you keep GFX cards > 2 years before upgrading

Coolmax Cug-950B 950W ATX 12V V.2.2 SLI Certified PSup - Suggest Antec SG / Corsair HX series at hi end .... Antec TP / Corsair TX next tier

Samsung Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 rpm SAtA Hard Drive - solid deal if that's the 500 GB per platter model.

Sony Optiarc DVD Burner - I went with the Plextor 320AS

Thermaltake V9 ATX Computer Chasis - Consensus favs here are:

Full Tower - HAF 932 and Antec 1200
Mid Tower - Antec 900 or 902 and CM HAF 922

Heat Sink - Prolimatech Megahaleme\s w/ ID Diamond Karat 7 Thermal Compound
