£800 to spend!

[Parmesan]

Right I have been out of the whole hardware side of computers a while now, and am not exaclty sure whats best for what.

So can anyone who's feeling kind, give me a spec for a nice little gaming machine, main games I want to play are WoW, CSS and some of the newer ones like oblivion.

Just need the tower unit itself, got monitor and stuff like that already.

Can go over £800 quid but my max is £1000

This should be a great gaming system. You should be able to get a good overclock using this cpu and mobo.
