Hello everyone,

I'm finally ready to build my new computer and this is what I have chosen so far...

http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/Shopping/shoppingcart.asp?submit=view

I definately want to build off of this Processor and RAM (or even the 3800 would probably be sufficient if I want to spend more on the grpahics card or something else and stay within budget). The burner and HD are probably good enough. I think the motherboard is solid...but I am open to suggestions on that. I am trying to build a PC for less than $1,000 (not including monitor which I have already purchased).

My heart is not set on this hideous case...so I am open to suggestions on that as well. I just want this thing to be fast and quiet....good enough to watch DVD's seemlessly on my 20" flat-panel monitor and for playing madden and Age of Empires III.

Please recommend (and provide a link to newegg or a cheaper retailer if possible) a case, graphics card, and any cooling items or any other critical components I may be forgetting.

Thanks everyone!! I appreciate your help.
