do you really need 5.1 sound. i myself have 2 ears. headphones work good

A lot of people say the best gaming mouse is the Logitech 510 MX. Don't know if that's of interest. I'm getting one for Xmas, though, so I will see.

Pretty cool system, BTW.

 

[wasted]

good system, but I would get
a) more harddrive space
b) win XP pro instead of home
c) forget the soundcard, i checked the specs of your mainboard, and it provides 7.1 sound (8CH (=channel))

I'd go with a 6600gt instead. I just don't see the performance difference being worht the $150 more you pay for the 6800gt.
