Video card question and PC building update

[ddragon625]

Hi,

I've been keeping track of the 7900GT card for awhile and it looks like with the new version (N-584) most of the problems with it has been fixed. Is this a quality card to buy for a gaming PC?

Also, after the advice all of you gave me, here is the current progress of my soon-to-be PC:

1) System Memory: Corsair twin2X2048-6400 (Bought)

2) CPU: Core 2 Duo EE6600 (Not Bought)

3) CD/DVD drive: Lite-On 16X +-R DVD Burner (Not Bought)

Components that I need more advice on:

1) Motherboard: a good motherboard in the $100-200 range which is compatible with all my components so far.

2) Case: Antec Sonata II (Not Bought)

Should I buy a better power supply? (in the 550W+ range)
If so, should I just buy a better quality case and the power supply separately?

The Sonata power supply will handle that system fine.

I'll defer a motherboard recommendation for a C2D for now, it's too early for me to endorse one. If I *had* to build one right now, I'd probably spend the big bucks for an Asus P5W-DH and that's over $200.
