    oh , i'm sorry if i didn't clear that b4 .

    but when i asked for the 4 main parts that i was looking for , i added the budget for only the 4 parts , and why should i put the budget for other things which i don't need to discuss here .

    and i excluded RAM , so it's only 3 parts now , so can u get me other good offers now ??

    Oh, OK.

    Well, I still think the CPU offers the best bang for the buck and would work well for you.
    I love Gigabyte motherboards and this one offers everything but dual vid card capability- which I think is overrated anyway.
    I don't follow the latest trends in video cards...maybe someone more clued in than I will chime in.

    about CPU I donno , but i like to get core 2 Quad cause in my current PC i suffer from its low speed ( don't ask about the CPU please ) .

    and i don't care about dual vid card in my motherboard .

    so thanks alot for ur advices and i will wait for someone else to complete the rest or add other opinions

    Speed will not be an issue with the Wolfie but if it's a quad you want, then go for it.

    well, it looks wonderful , mainboard and cpu are amazing , and VGA card looks great , but do u think they are better than the following ( cause i can handle a little more bucks over my budget if it really worth it ) :


    Radeon HD 4870
    Radeon HD 4850
    GeForce 8800 GTX ( or Ultra if it's existed )


    and thanks a lot man for this reply .

    If you're going quad, I'd get the Q9550.
    For an extra $50 you double the L2 cache and get a little extra speed.

    I like spending your money.

    Agreed on the CPU, Thanks Clock

    As far as the video card. Alot of it is preference some people prefer Nvidia and some like ATI. Me I'm a Nvidia man so I'm going to say my pick:
    EVGA GeForce GTX 260 896-P3-1260-AR Video Card

    is still the one to beat. Also Evga has a lifetime warranty so if something goes wrong with your card(within reason) they will replace it for you

    i believe this would be what you wanted but it goes way out of your budget:
    Quad Core Extreme
    FSB 1333MHz
    64 bit Support

    as for video card:
