Smile Help, Using Cyberpower.co.uk?

I have very little knowledge of bang for the buck systems but I was wondering if it is possible on this site for someone to make a spec up for me from http://www.cyberpowersystem.co.uk/ for £650-700 that will run games very well and be a good system to build on.

Please Note - I already have a 22" 1680x1050 widescreen monitor

I'm ordering a XFX GeForce 8800GTS 640MB DVIx2 TVO PCI-E


as well so I will not need these two items and I already have a mouse and keyboard I have gaming 5.1 headphones so will not need speakers.

I would really appreciate it if someone could do this for me thankyou.

I'd recommend doing the build yourself, instead of buying from a company. But if you are set on them, here are my choices:

Use the Intel Core 2 Duo based configurator.
Definitely make a PSU upgrade to the Enermax/OCZ/Tagan units. I'd get the Enermax 600w Noisetaker.
Go with the Core 2 Duo E6600
Switch to the Intel DP965LT motherboard instead of the ECS default.
Go with 2GB (2x1GB) of RAM. The Default Value ram is fine.
Don't need any video cards.
I'd go with the 320GB 16MB cache SATA Hard drive.
I'd get a LiteOn DVD Burner and a second DVDROM for drive to drive copies.
Stick with onboard audio since you can add a sound card later if you need to.
Skip all of the page 2 and 3 extras aside from Windows XP Home.

That totals up to Price: £618.00 ex. VAT | £726.15 in. VAT

Hope that helps.
