In short 790i, 2Gb of DDR3 (looks like good DDR3 Nick, or Vokda?), Q6700 Quad core (will save up and get a Q9300 45nm faster cooler), 600wt PSU(looks crappy might need to get a new one), Seagate 320 7200RPM HDD, all in a Ultra Black Aluminus ATX Mid-Tower Case with Clear Side, will get an OS, CPU cooler, and I already have the VGA.

1333 9-9-9-27 makes it about as fast as any DDR2 533 tower

I am running OCZ Reaperx DDR3 1333 (pc3 10666) and am happy with it. I am sure there is better memory but for what
