What is your budget?
Do you have an OS already? Is this a gaming build?

I added that build up it is = $921.39
My Budget is $1,000 It is a gaming build. I don't have an OS, hoping for Vista Premium, unless I can get Ultimate for a good deal. |

Looks like a fine list to me for your budget. Be sure to get the 64bit version of Vista for your 4GB of RAM. A 32bit version will only recognize about 3GB.

What is the best brand for a graphics card?
What is the best brand for a mother board? Should the motherboard and graphics card be compatible in terms of name? Does that help? |

Best is a matter of opinion.
Recommended brands for mb here is usually Asus. For the video card, EVGA is usually recommended. |
