ok, i have a bottleneck question: will the e4400 let the 8800gts perform to its full capabilities? i realize now that i dont need as powerful a cpu as i previously thought.

my list now:
e4400
gskill nq's (gotta buy from newegg)
xclio stablepower 500w
evga 800gts 320mb
samsung dvdrw sata
samsung 400gb sata
gigabyte ds3r
zerotherm btf90 cpu cooler
acer al2051 monitor
arctic silver 5

all this is 1106 bucks. only 6 dollars over... i can manage.

At stock yes, It would bottleneck a bit, but overclocked, to around 3GHz, it will be fine.
