haha, thanks for the answers guys.
I don't know that much about computers and I'm putting together a computer on dell.com and I just wanted to make sure I got some good stuff.
for gaming, the processor is way too wimpy, bump it up a lot. I would run the 8600GTS if they have it available and, if you want to speed it up, add a WD Raptor drive at 10,000RPM as the boot drive and use the 320GB as your data drive. the difference between 320GB and 500GB drives are only a few bucks. well, maybe not from Dell but when you actually buy the drives, so I would probably bump that up since 500GB drives are under 100 bucks.
