Abridged New Build

Hey all,

I'm looking to make as good as a computer that I can get for around $400 but I already have the Graphics Card (Nvidia 8600), Hard Drive (SATA), and Operating system(XP), and a monitor. I need the best I can get for the remaining parts so that I can bring the these up to speed later. (I can go over $400 if the rebates bring it back down)


I would be most thankful for any help that you could give me! The computer would mostly be used for gaming purposes and I rather prefer Intel as I have experience overclocking Intel chips.

Thanks a lot!
