Some of you may know me/grown sick of me (Constant newb question in one thread to StaffsMike)
Well anyway after much hassling around I have decided I'm definitely going to ubild myself a new rig (first one ever building myself!) and have put some components together.
There is 1 component which will probably change, that is the CPU as I am willing to wait till the end of January to build myself the new comp and the new 45nm Quads will be coming out.
Anyway without further ado here is everything I'm planning on buying (Already have Monitor, Keyboard and Mouse)

Which RAM should I go for, they are roughly around the same price, but one is Corsair and one is Geil. I may plan on OC'ing but not to begin with.
All in all it comes to a total cost of: £945.12 (Using the more expensive ram) incl VAT and Delivery
I'm going to be mainly using the rig for Gamin with such games as Crysis, FFOW, BF2142 and more to come
