New mid-level gaming PC

PARTS NOT REQUIRED: keyboard, mouse, monitor, sound card

PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: newegg is fine COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: USA

PARTS PREFERENCES: I imagine AMD would give me better bang for the buck, but I am not hardcore either way.

OVERCLOCKING: Maybe SLI OR CROSSFIRE: No

MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1280x1024 (dual monitor setup for 2560x1024), OR whatever I can get using a 37in HDTV.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Essentially I just want Windows pc that I can play some of my older games that I am tweaking for, and same goes for my wife. This would be my first build, so what I have done is basically put together two "lists" on newegg ... and can't tell if they are enough for what I want, or a bit of overkill. So here it goes ...

Build #1 - ~$700

Build #2 - ~$800

I hope just posting the URL to my public wishlist works for everyone, if not - then I'll do the dirty work of copying/pasting to all the different selections.

Thanks in advance.
