    If I were you i'd get a setup something like this:

     

    Intel Core 2 Duo E4400

    2GB DDR2 675mhz Corsair XMS2

    nVidia GeForce 8800GTS-320

    250GB Western Digital SE16 SATA 3Gb/s

     

    Overclock that E4400 A LOT, and then you'll have one kick ass gaming machine

    but finding an 8800gts for under 300 dollars is very very hard to do

    May I suggest...

    Pick the parts, they build it for you, but Shipping & Handling can be a little expensive.
