dude u look at the professional world out there: the graphic designers, game developers, cg artists etc are all using high end CRT's - if you can afford em why not go for better image quality - when compared - games still look and run better on crts

Mowaza, the quality of crt monitors is no doubt a lot lot better then lcds and i myself am using a crt, but if i had the money for an lcd when i buy my new pc, i will buy the lcd, it enhances the feel of the pc a lot.

Sorry for the double post :( but this deserved a seperate post...

Ok fady, everything you listed above looks great BUT that 350W power supply case. If youre getting the 7800 card you should have a minimum of 400W power supply - you can get psu's seperately or just buy a better case with a good quality one as a psu will go a long way in system stability. For motherboards - just make sure its compatible with your CPU (read the manual or check online) - and it has a few pci slots including a PCIe for your graphics card. Lastly remember - never pay retail price - always search for a wholesaler of pc parts who will sell the same thing for less!

fady yaar i know you want a computer like the spider magazine but i dont know what it looks like can u gimme a link ? so i can better understand:) also i decides (GASPS) not to build a c2d rig for my bady because i feel its better i make it on my own money and not use my parents money so my whole rig will have to wait tilll...2008! but yea i have some things eyed out

if oyu can afford the 2.13 e6400 go for it because 1.86 will be the minimum standard in crysis and stuff for a really awsome experience!
for a gfx card wait till the nvidia 6600 comes out its a dx10 enabled card for around $200 so its an awesome deal if u can wait
