I'm building a computer for the first time, and so far basically what I have done is gone through newegg.com and put together as much of the parts as I can. My budget is $2K, I'll mostly be using this computer for gaming, I need every thing except a mouse and OS(supposedly my friend can legally get me XP pro for $13.99 where he goes to college, if not I can get it for $99). This is what I have so far.
