I'm not a serious gamer or anything, mainly stuff my 6 yr. old plays online. Burn cd's and dvd's and just general usage. I am going to do some mild not wild ocing. I'm going to keep using my 19" CRT and speakers. Might get a new keyboard and mouse but that's trivial.
Further upgrades will come later and I will running XP PRO.
I'm also not locked into buying everything at Newegg, is just easier to show the list with the prices so you can get a ballpark idea of where I'm at. I don't think its to bad for under $700.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I would suggest a larger hard drive for starters. If the PSU modular? If not I would highly suggest one, take a look at the 520HX although it is overpriced at newegg. Other than that it looks good. You might want to look for a deal for a cooler based on a 120mm fan just for noise reasons, the freezer should perform fine for mild ocing.
