devil-fire
with the release of half-life 2 and about a year since i got my last chunk of computer, its high time i got a new one. I am aiming to get at least 30 frames per second on the newer 3Dgames like Doom3 and Half-Life2 with most of the details on (im currently getting 3-12FPS on doom3 on the lowest detail level ) iv got a price range of about $1,700 Canadian dollors (1,425 USD)
i basicly want to get everything from new speakers, new mouse/keyboard/monitor/case/everything so I am thinking that an all-in-one package deal will get me a discount but I am not sure.
here is what i was thinking of
Motherboard Soltek 865PRO-775
RAM KingMax 256MB DDR433 X 2
Hard Drive WD 160GB 7200rpm 8MB Cache
Floppy Drive 1.44MB FDD
DVD-RW Lite-On 8x DVD+/-RW
Case Antec SLK3700AMB ATX Case
Video Card Sapphire 9600 Pro 256MB
Sound Card SB Audigy ES 5.1
Monitor Samsung 710V 17" LCD Black
Keyboard Microsoft Multimedia Keyboard
Mouse Logitech Cordless Optical Mouse
Speakers Logitech Z-640 Speakers
CPU P4 3.4E Socket

all this comes to 1620 Canadain so i got a little bit of trade-up room here
so what do you guys think? I am not up to date on the lastest and greatest technology or terminology or the greatest performace/price pieces so any advise is good advise
thanks guys!
