Any suggestions? I would like to keep it under $2,000. No quad cores, please. CPUs and Mobo I want Intel, and for video cards I prefer Nvidea.

Video card id suggest 8800GT 512mb =p the 9800gx2 ive heard heats up pretty bad. But my 8800GT stays under 60C under full load from crysis on high. Im not sure how the 9800GTX handles but a 8800GT for ~$200-250 or a 9800GTX for ~$320-$350

Get a Celeron, they are really cheap.

No, just... no.
Celerons are just... no. Big no. Especially if you're going to be gaming on the computer it's in.

Exactly. The E8400 is pretty much the best Dual Core out, so I'll most likely be sticking with that.

Lmao, I knew this would come up.

Tell me; what game will use ALL 4 of the cores? Your going to say Crysis. Okay, problem is, Crysis on maxed out settings only uses 2 cores. Quad Cores are a waste of money at the moment. Might as well get them when they are $400 and when they will actually be fully used.

i use it for playing CS burning movies and moving files to my portable hard drive and running a virius scan. I don't lag worth sh*t.

So what? You could do that on the E8400 if you clocked her right.

i sitll had one free processor
