No arguments Intel own AMD in the cpu battle, AMD/ATI are probs the best graphics cards out at tho moment though. Get a P45/X38 board and Corsair/Seasonic/Enermax PSU too. Thats my opinion anyhoo

Seconded.

Hit the nail right on the head with that :)
 
How many films you got to rip?

You could be looking at several hundred just for hard drive space.

You will be wanting a q6600 quad.
Then it's just a matter of cramming what ever else you can into the budget.

As it is media as well as gamin, is noise a problem?

Thanks for all the input guys i didnt need an os as i have vista 64 bit already and stating i only need desktop means i didnt want anything else!! I think shaffaaf27 or hp7909 would be the one for me as i say majority gaming with some movie converting (not priority but like to be pretty quick)
thx guys, gonna order now :)
