Hey everyone, I'm building a pc (first time from scratch) and I'm just curious no montior or printer or anything but, just for the pc what would you do to make the best computer for $1,000.

I know I deffinetly want AMD 64 with the 939 pin.
I'm thinking I should wait for the Nvida4 mobo to come out (someone said NOV?)
It's going to be for digital camcording/video not a big gamer but also maybe FFXI.
And I want to overclock most likely.

So Let me know what combos or ideas you have. Any response's are appreciated.

Intel has a small lead in video editing when using programs optimized for SSE3, That is with the highend 3.6ghz I would go for a 3000+ 939, MSI Neo2 and some 2-2-2-5 Ram No less than a gig

Nothing that would be too suitable gaming, A64 3000+ with maybe a 9600 or 9700
