This will be the first time I build a computer from scratch, I think I have everything that I need on this list. Whether it all works together or not.... I dunno. This'll be the 3rd night in a row i've tried to become a computer genius and i'd hate to order over 3 grand worth of stuff and have something not work =(

Intel Core I7 Extreme Edition 965 Nehalem 3.2 GHZ LGA 1336 130W Quad-core Processor

I'll buy a Monitor (over 20 and below 30) from Best buy, already got an old Keyboard and mouse that I love. Not sure what Vista I need to buy. There was like 100 diff versions of it on Newegg.
That's all the stuff I have in mind so far. Only thing i'm iffy on is the Case. (wanted a different one, but it's out of stock atm. The Xclio 1000 or 2000) Far as I can tell everything is compatible.
I'm a real hardcore gamer. Been playing MMO's for 8 years. I'd like to run Crysis on full with Anti-Aliasing turned up all the way =)
I'd REALLY appreciate any insight you all can give me. What yall think and what ya don't think, ect ect.
