Do you already have some or all of the peripherals you will be needing? Do you have a monitor, keyboard/mouse, printer, speakers, etc. that can be used with this new build? Or will some of those items need to be purchased yet?

Asus P5Q: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813131295
Intel e8400: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115037 Corsair 2x1GB (2GB total): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145590 Seagate 500GB: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148288 ATi 4850: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102747 Enlight 750W PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817373008 You could probably go with a lower wattage PSU for a lower price CD/DVD burner: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827106263 Parts come out to about $745. Some of the prices on these parts are a little bit better at zipzoomfly.com, so take a look there too before your final purchase. BenQ 19" LCD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...Tpk=benq%2blcd For anything less than 22", you don't want widescreen (if you even want widescreen). It looks too small. Microsoft optical USB mouse: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16826105096 All you need is a keyboard and case (and printer if you want it)
