Hello, I'm looking for an efficient, relatively future-proof build for the price [around $600] to run Fedora on a dual monitor setting. I intend to dual boot with Windows 7 in the near future, for gaming purposes, but this will be after I can afford a video card as well. As of now, I'll be transferring over my 8800 GT. This is my first build so there might be some incompatibility issues or general discrepancies, but so far I've compiled this rig:
CPU:
AMD Phenom II X6 1055T Thuban 2.8GHz Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor

Data Hard Drive:
Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 ST31000528AS 1TB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive

DVD Drive:
