Help Decker make a Computer!

[Decker]

Ok Decker needs help building a new computer from parts.

Ok the requrements
1) make it close to 1200$
2) use www.newegg.com only
3) Its for gameing, I dont need a monitor, keyboard, mouse, gamepads, or anything else just a kick ass tower.

ANY help greatly loved!

So far this is where I have a start:
MOBO
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813131524
CASE
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16811133145
HD
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16822144235
POWER
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16817182016
Prossesor
www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819103539


Im really up in the air about the prossesor, im not shure if it will suite me for very long or if its fast enoughf. Also Im not really worried about a soundcard, Im happy with the MOBO's built in one. Oh and if you can get a good price I want duel screen on the VIDcard, not really a mojor thing but I WOULD REALLY LIKE THAT.

Rember its for gameing! Thanks guys!

You want gaming so Id def go for a AMD processor, some people will say Intels better, but believe me. I saw HL2 run on a Intel with a better vid card, but then I saw HL2 with a slightly worse vid card but was running an AMD and was better.
Get a gig of RAM at least, RAM helps so much.
Sorry I cant be more help, but Im a amatuer computer builder.

Edit: oops didnt see you had the processor picked.

if you plan on playing battefield 2 make sure you have 2 gigs of ram

Not sure if you have checked out Tigerdirect.com yet or not but definately worht while if your going for this stuff, you can usually find a MOBO and CPU bundle for a great deal and other things along with that.

Like right now I Know they have a Maxtor 300GB HDD for like $89.99
You can also get some really good power supplies from there for around $50-60 which if your going for 500W + you ont want to go cheap (rating may not be accurate on the cheaper ones)

Processor Choice seems adequate, you can always go up later.

Something new that has come out is DDR2 Ram which has broken the 1GB barrier for RAM, a bit spendy and not to many MOBO will accept them but if your serious about gaming I would look into that for sure.

I didnt see any Video card listed, So I would highly recommend something at least 256mb

Also your cooling will eb an issue so dont cheap out on either fans, or liquid cooling, if you want tigerdirect.com has a PCI card cool that sits in a Vacan PCI slot to help cool your PCI cards and Vid card.

I know you said to use just that site but looking through it I found some better deals over at tiger direct, not all but some so its worth checking out and they have EXCEELENT customer service there to.

I see you found a Vid card, good choice BTW, also your RAM is great, you may want to find a MOBO that has at least 3-4 RAM slots so you can add more. Never buy a MOBO with just 2 RAM slots

Your DVD burner, if your going to burn DVDs or music, your sounds quality and copy quality will not be all that great with that NEC, I had one a while back (it was cheap so why not right?) the CD's i had burned were crappy quality and they were direct copies from a actual CD. If your getting a burner dotn get stingy on it, expect to pay at least 50-60 for a good reliable one
