Thanks a lot for all the help.
Samsung T260 Rose-Black 25.5" 5ms I ordered this monitor this morning. I am a big fan of Samsung after purchasing a 56" DLP and Samsung Speaker system. The Samsung monitor will match the other hardware in my place. I did a lot of research this morning and this appears to be the best for me.
I agree with both of the HDD options, and I will add those to my cart.
I'm going to go with a 750 watt power supply for now, until I decide to purchase a second video card later.
I'll look into the bench marks between the GTX 260 and the GTX 280. It may be worth spending the extra $100.
I am leaning towards buying the FTW motherboard and getting the faster RAM, which will be in stock in a week. I'm going to think about it though.
My only concern right now is whether to go 64bit or 32bit Vista. I was talking to a friend who told me that your video card RAM is subtracted from the total RAM that 32 bit OS can handle. If I have a video card with 1gig of RAM, I won't get any use out of 4gigs of system RAM.
