Need New build advice

Hi, I am looking to start building a new pc... I have built 2 already, but I have lost track of what motherboards and processors are the best value right now. I have alays used Asus mobos and pentium processors. I will want to get a nice quad core 64 bit system running...any advice anyone could give would be great, I really need a starting place really.

I am looking to spend maybe 1200 on the computer, and hope to build it in feb or so....

Thanks!

Asus P7P55D and a i5/750 or i7/860. The ATI 5850 is not necessary unless you are a heavy gamer. Check back just before it's time to build, things change quickly.
