ok, here's a much better setup then:
AMD64 3200+ Venice (retail)-$210
DFI Lanparty ultra-d- $135
eVGA 6600GT - $180
1gb twinMOS ram- $95
Seagate 160gb SATA HDD-$93
NEC 3510A DVD-RW- $50
OCZ Modstream 520W-$106
Case & shipping- $100 max
that's probably the best setup you can get for under $1000
Reasons why to get what i suggested:
-the retail venice has a 3yr warranty and stock HSF; also the 3200+ venice is VERY overclockable (and even if you don't it'll run very cool, making your cpu fan run slower, or quieter) along with new SSE3 instructions
-dfi lanparty is the most stable and most OCable 939 board, making it the obvious choice
-evga is known for making quality gfx cards and the 6600gt supports PS3.0, making it able to run up coming games with the eye candy even $800+ X850XT PE's can't run
-twinmos ram; very good ram for cheap price, paired along with the dfi board, it can receive enough voltages to overclock like more expensive rams can, and even if you don't, they are still very good ram
-seagate makes the quietest & most reliable (imo) HDD's, SATA transfer at 150mb/sec as opposed to the 100-133 you get with older hard drives
-the nec 3510a won gold as the best optical drive they've tested out of a lot of other optical drives; not only are they cheap, but they also work great
-ocz power supplies are known to be very good; this psu can probably last you another upgrade (and yes, you do need another power supply, you can't use the one that comes with the case)
the case is your choice, if i were you, i'd look into the thermaltake xasers at about $70
