All this stuff is either on the way or here

AMD64 3200+
Asus Asus K8V SE Deluxe
ATI 128mb 9700 Pro retail
2x512 3200 DDR Kinston Value Ram
Hitachi 160GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive
NEC 8X Black Dual Layer DVD+/-RW Drive, Model ND-2510A BLK,

Aspire X-Dreamer II(Black) ATX Mid-Tower Case with 350W Power Supply, With Window, Model "ATXB4KLW-BK/350" (If the PSU sucks, I'll buy a different one)..


sound good?
Saved some cash getting a cheaper case and video card but, I don't think a 9700 pro is anything to be ashamed of, I cant wait to get the sucker together.
BTW I've been gaming on a dell 600m with a 64mb ATI radeon 9000 so...anyway

Now I just need a decent monitor....all I have is an old Gateway 17 inch CRT....I don't think that is going to suffice but, I'll give it a chance(at least until I can get something else)....
Anybody know of a good cheap monitor solution, that would do this system justice?

Why buy a cheap monitor when that's what you look at everytime you sit down at your computer? Save up some more cash and get a "good" monitor. :)
