Well I've been out of the loop for the last 3 years now, so am not really up to scratch with the current flow of technology. That's what university did to me anyway.
So to get to the point, I'd say I am allocating about a grand to spend on a new machine, although that budget is a bit flexible if need be.
I'll need everything, case and all, apart from a monitor (2407FPW), mouse, keyboard and speakers.

I wouldn't say i am heavily into gaming, as the only game I am into at the moment is WoW, but that might change soon.

So to get us going I was thinking something along the lines of an E6600 and an BFG GeForce 8800GTS ("Future proof"?) for starters.

Cheers in advance guys. :)
 
Cheers very much Billy.
I did say my budget was flexible.
But anyway...
So we can easily slash 100 quid by opting for a Gigabyte GA_965P_DS3?
What would be the major effect on the system?

Oh and, sound card? I'm not really a big music buff so an onboard will do me fine I think. Hmm i answered my own question.
 
Cheers guys im very thankful for the help.
At the moment i dont think i'm too concered with SLIing in the future.
And i had already spotted the pc7 so good to know someone suggested what i was thinking already.

Once again thanks very much.
