I am looking to build this system sometime in the next two or three weeks

Budget Range: $800 - $1200

System usage will be mostly gaming, but also a bit of web surfing with the odd movie thrown in there every now and then

PNR: keyboard, mouse, speakers, case

Preferred websites for Parts: newegg.com, ncix.com, tigerdirect.com

Country: USA

Parts Preferences: I prefer whatever works for great gaming performance ;)

Overclocking: maybe a tad

SLI or Crossfire: Not planning on it unless I can find a great deal on a dual card set thats cheap enough

Monitor Resolution: looking for 23"+ monitor with a minimum of 1920x1080

I am looking to build a system that will last me a couple of years. If delaying the build to wait for a new CPU or video card is the best choice then thats something I am willing to live with, but I prefer to build the system now.
