Figure we could post up what we currently have and also what we plan on having. The PC I have now is nice but I am going to have it fully upgraded by October.

Current PC:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit
Biostar TA790GX 128M
AMD Phenom 9850 Quad-Core Processor ~ 2.5GHz
DDR2 6GB Ram 816GHz ( I think that is the correct speed. )
NVIDIA GeFforce 9800 GT
WD 150GB Hard Drive
An old 18'in Acer Monitor
Base line Razor Keyboard...got for free
Six year old Kingston mouse
And a dented, beat up medium sized tower..thanks airport.

New Machine:
Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit
COOLER MASTER HAF 932 Advanced RC-932-KKN5-GP Black Steel ATX Full Tower
ASUS Crosshair IV Formula AM3 AMD 890FX SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard
AMD Phenom II X6 1100T Black Edition Thuban 3.3GHz, Socket AM3 125W Six-Core Desktop Processor
x2 CORSAIR XMS3 4GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600 Desktop
Western Digital RE4 WD5003ABYX 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive
COOLER MASTER Silent Pro M600 RS-600-AMBA-D3 600W ATX12V V2.3
RAZER DeathAdder Black Edition
RAZER Black Wired BlackWidow
ASUS VS248H-P Black 24" HDMI LED Backlight Widescreen LCD

But I ran into trouble and I am juggling which video card to choose.

ASUS ENGTX560 DCII OC/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video

or

EVGA SuperClocked 01G-P3-1461-KR GeForce GTX 560 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video

I havn't wasted much money on a sound card..I know..blasphemous but maybe I will if I see if I have extra cash.
All of this I am purchasing from NewEgg.com, if you havn't heard of it or just havn't been there. I would check it out, they have good service and take care of their customers..least in my experience.
