just for the rec, i have 4 gigs of corsair, an ASUS Proactive Socket 939 A8N-E Motherbaod and a 2.0 ghz AMD Athlon 64 Processer with Hypertransport Technology. I have 250 dollars left and need to divide it between a hd (at least 80 g) a $30 game called guuilkd wars, and a video card. (Does this mb come with a built in sound card?)

That video card is a good fast card and should run most anything you want just fine. Yes, the A8N-E has Realtek 8-channel onboard sound. Most decent 80Gig hard drives are in the $60-$80 range, so with the price of the other stuff you mentioned, you should still make it within your $250 price range. On the hard drive, just be sure to get one with at least an 8 Meg cache and not 2 Meg.

Believe it or not i got me a SEAGATE 160GB@7200RPM hard drive for the great low price of $34.95. I was in circuit city one day and they had a great weekend sale on these hard drives. it had like 70-100 dollars worth of mail in rebates so keep a eye around at your local stores.
