I've looked around at motherboards and found a few. For Intel Chipsets I've found This and This, both which I would be quite happy with. I checked some Nvidia ones just in case and have found This and This. As I've said I dunno about Motherboards so I dont have a preference to either of them.

Okay, atm I'm quite happy with the rest of the spec.
Case wise I'm happy with theNZXT LEXA Blackline. The PSU Suggested I'm happy with aslong as it works with everything else, which im not quite sure about (dunno anything about PSU's).
I was thinking of Getting This Soundcard, although I'm not positive if it would make to big a differnce.

Is that fine?

For the record:

1. Budget:£1000/$2000

2. Brands: Don't Mind, as long as they're good.

3. Multitasking: I will be heavily Mutiltasking; Photoshop, iTunes, Firefox, MSN, Maybe another processor heavy program or a game.

4. Gaming: Not much but I would like to play some current games at a good quailty with amazing Frame Rates. Most intensive current game I have is elders scroll Oblivion.

5. Calculations: On and Off yes, alot when doing so i'd imagine.

6. Overclocking: Not straight away, in a year or two when parts are slightly out-of-date possibly.

7. Storage: I have a tendancy to delete nothing, I will get a 1TB external hard drive and plan on 640gb for the comp itself.

8. Legacy Support: Not Sure on that one...

9. Operating System: Windows XP

10. Case: As long as it looks good and it can hold everything, if it can cool stuff down aswell, that would be a good bonus.

11. Accessories: Already chosen a Keyboard and Mouse, going to use current monitor.

12. Recycled Components: No

13. Monitor: Nope

14. Stores: No

15. Location: England

Cheers
