DS3 = will make you cry before it does what you want it to do.

Go P5B + E6300.

Why the cpu ? because it makes little difference unless you go for the 2MB E6600...everyone under that is the same.

That's funny.I dont want to cry.I'm happy man.
But thank you,yeah I'll go for E6300.
I'll buy Corsair XMS2 DDr2 800 2GB which is on sale for $185 after rebate,
Antec Smartpower 500W $69.99,
Seagata 320GB Sata $94.99
GeForce 7600GT $119 after rebate

And I'll probably take your recomendation and buy P5B Deluxe.Is it easy to overclock with that board??

So I assume unless 4MB cache on E6600,E6400 wont make a big difference than E6300,right.

The added cache doesn't justify the cost, just get a nice aftermarket cooler and O/C the CPU. The added Mhz will make up for the lack of cache.

Yeah and the 2MB chips tend to be able to take a higher FSB (check here (http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2822&p=4)) and that will make sure you can clock them just that tad higher on the same multiplier to make them all perform the same.

The psu listed here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?t=112326 is cheaper and a LOT more powerful than the ANtec...
