ok here is my results I have some questions:

case:THERMALTAKE Tsunami VA3400BWA Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window it is a bit more but it comes with a 400W power supply unless I need that 30W more I think this is a good deal actually I only save 3 dollars by doing this so should I go for the extra 30 watts?

motherboard:ASUS A8N-E ATX AMD Motherboard I'm sticking with it I like it adds some color and what not

video card:eVGA 256-P2-N376-AX Video Card a bit pricey but probably good quality

CPU:AMD Athlon 64 3500+ Integrated into Chip FSB Socket 939 Processor picey but it's cool

RAM-GeIL Value 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM Dual Channel Kit System Memory I'm sticking with this

keyboard-BELKIN Black Wireless ErgoBoard Keyboard for this one I don't know if anyone finds a nice black keyboard that is wireless please tell me

mouse-Logitech Marble Mouse

speakers-Logitech X-530 5.1 Speaker this one has A/v prots in the back then a jack for hooking it up to a computer and I have an A/V changer so my computer can have my VCR and my games hooked up all into one. COOL!

operating system-Microsoft Windows XP Professional With Service Pack 2 I wonder if i could make a operating system that ran windows games after all a bunch of college kids made linux

TV tuner-Kworld VS-TV878RF TV Tuner, Video Capture Card, REMOTE or Compro VideoMate TV PVR VideoMate TV PVR all I was looking for was a TV tuner that wasn't too much that I could hook my TV up to maybe as an option instead of a monitor and one with a remote (which I cant even explain why)

fan controller-Thermaltake XCONTROLLER Fan Controller w/ LED Light I forgot the reason why I was looking at this

total minimum price-$2,408.24
