I would suggest a 9600 and 4 gigs of RAM...
Here is my modification for ultimate orgasmic gaming...and it's prepared for tommorow...

change graphcard to GeForce 9800gtx and atleast 19" screen, more RAM too.
Other than that i cant see why it wouldnt work fine, personally id choose the Logitech 5.1 surround speakersystem but im a soundgeek

If you dont understand what i write, ask a damn question instead of going into autoflaming-mode.
And dont read in stuff between the lines, i say what i mean.
Looks ok to me, change the RAM to 4 gigs just. The 9800 card isnt worth the extra cash unless you have lotsa money, check the benchmarks on toms hardware... A litlle better but not worth x2 cash.
changing your card to a 9800 will not give you the boost you want considering how much more money it is.
I would invest in 4 gigs tho and possible a larger monitor but if you cannot get a larger monitor thats fine
People who have to create conspiracy and hate threads to further a cause lacks in intellectual comprehension of diversity.
Buy two extra gigs with what it's got (less than 50 bucks if you shop at the right places) and it looks decent to me.
so will hellfires build work very smoothly?
"Please look at this computer build and tell me what to improve/take away"
this thread should be title, i got a new computer to play conan and i want to brag about it.
It would rape every other computer out there except for the 6k 4-video-6 gig ram-2 dual core-card-rich-mofo computers :P
To sum up to people who don't want to read: I put the 9600 instead of the 8800, mainly becasue it's best to be "prepared for tommorow"...I also put the 7.1 surround sound system and a non onboard sound card (Audigy extremegamer) for total sonic sex. You should also keep the upgrade to the 19" monitor because it will look a lot nicer. I decided for 4 gigs of RAM and the quad core proccesor because again, it's good to be prepared for tommorow's games...
I will tell you straight up that Ibuypower has a less than stellar reputation in customer service. I would not buy from them. You would be better off ordering your parts from NewEgg and building yourself. You'll get a far better system for far less money. Ibuypoer spends a lot on advertising so it makes them look great. But ask people that actually ordered what they think.
