Hi all. This will be my first ever computer build. I've never really had any experience with hardware, so maybe you guys could offer me some good tips on how to get rid of any static discharge. Thats the only worry that I have when i put this together. That, and about the motherboard. I dont want to short out the motherboard. So, any tips on that stuff will be appreciated. Now, onto the computer build.

Thats it. My budget is $2100, and no more at all. I will game, and I want to be able to play FEAR, Halflife 2, Quake 4, CoD2 on max AA and AF at 1280x1024 with all max settings enabled with at least 60 FPS on the games. Other activities will be listening to music, watching DVD's, burning them, editing them, chat, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, some programming, and thats about all. (i might think of some more later)
And the reason why i have heatspreaders with my RAM is that i might try overclocking a bit later on. So, thats about it. I'm open to any comments/suggestions. Thanks guys.
