if your looking for a slightly more realistic setup try this:
Athlon 64 3400+ (with retail cooling)
Radeon 9800XT
2x 512mb ddr400 of some good brand like what cysus recommends
(with what other components you want)

I can create a more realistic and more complete computer list based on your budget if you are actually in the market for a new system.

Going full out is always a waste. The fastest CPU always costs double what the second fastest costs.
