Thanks again for all the suggestions. I was able to get together piece together a e8400, asus P5q deluxe and a MSI gtx 260 for a little 490. I picked the board and cpu off of ebay. I saved a 100 from msn cashback. I ordered from big sellers but I am still going to cross my fingers. I also...
Thanks for all the input. I check out everyone ideas. I ended up ordering MSI N260GTX-T2D896 OC $239.99 - $40 rebate bluedragon saw. Seems like a good framerate/price relative to the other cards.

I have this keyboard. I'm happy with the quality, I really annoys me that it doesn't have a button for power/sleep. If that isn't important to you, then I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.
I need a headset for Team Fortess 2. Vista refuses to work with my plantronic bluetooth headset. Whats a good usb headset that can I get a hold of tonight @ Bestbuy, Circuit City, or Target.
Thanks alot, TF2 is so awesome.

Thanks OP, I was able to pick one upa red se. It's going to be a change for me though. I am lefty that's been using a trackball with my right hand. While i love the trackball, I feel that i've hit a wall with it in FPS.

Levine said they up the limit to 5 installs. He also said that at a have the ability to disable this feature and at undetermined date they will set the game so activation won't be necessary. If you don't play this game you are missing out. It's really fun.

If I wait 10 minutes it will be fine again for another 30...

How is this board running for those how had time to tinker with it. Any thing beside the memory been a issue. I saw that Zipzoomfly raised the price of this board 30 dollars since monday, now it is at 140. I hope newegg doesn't follow suit. Otherwise I am planning to order one when newegg...
