Building a new system.....

[Vampire_Slayer]

Yes, I know I just built a system earlier this year but something has come up. I need too many upgrades to perform as well as I want to and so I decided to build a new system. I am giving my old one to my dad, and he in exchange will help me pay for the parts I will need. Looking for a build around 200 bucks. System will be used mostly for gaming(oblivion mostly), along with surfing the net, playing music, and burning cds.

Newegg links up!!!!

or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103546
What would be my best bet here? Is the 4400 worth the extra money you have to pay for it?

Mobo:

Should I wait until the new DFI boards with the xpress-200 chipset is out?

Memory:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820227210
Is this good for 2g of memory? Or does anyone have another suggestion?

This or the audigy 2 zs?

This or should I get the GT and unlock the pipelines? Also tomorrow I will add an ATI card to compare. Should I get BFG or eVga if I go Nvidia?

Does the raptor help gaming enough to justify buying it?

PSU:

What are some good power supplies that cost less but have awsome performance? I know OCZ and Antec are to look for, but what models? Is it better to get a really good single rail psu, or a dual rail?

Cooling:some type of water cooling-??


Any ways I can cut the cost down on this build without sacraficing too much performance?What would make a good custom water cooling system? Also, is it a good idea to put a block on the nb? I want a silent computer since this one I have now is really freakin loud, but I don't want to hinder performance because of it. All suggestions welcome. Also, what are good surge protecters and UPS?

Edit: All comments and suggestions welcome.

Edit: Also looking for keyboard suggestions. Want something that feels comfy and won't hurt my wrist.

everything looks pretty good, i would stick with the GTX sense you might not be able to unlock the pipelines, for the raptor, i would buy the raptor for the OS. the cpu. a lot of ppl say the extra 1MB cache really doesnt do anything, if your saving money go with the 3800+ if not go with the 4400+. but i like toledo...

 

[Vampire_Slayer]

Ok, that sounds good. I can just overclock the 3800 anyways. Anyone want to second the opinion that the extra cache doesn't really help? Will it ever help much? Ok, I think I will try to get the GTX unless the x1800xt outperforms it in 3rd party benchies that should be out very soon. Although I read something about 12 pipes keeping one guy from getting good graphics on CoD2. It forced him to have dx7 graphics, hopefully that doesn't happen with 16.....Ever......Well as long as I will own the card. ATI has better AA and drivers than Nvidia from what I hear, is this correct?

Is this a good, cheaper alternative the the pc power psu listed above? What is the performance difference between the two?

Usually when I ask a question like this I will just edit one of my other posts to include it as to not post too many times in a row or to save space but this thread is falling away and I still need some questions answered. When ordering from newegg, is there a way to have your stuff shipped to you without everything being removed from its original packaging and stuffed all into one box? The reason I asked is because I wish to have all the boxes and stuff shipped with the products I order.
