Hi, I was hoping I could get some people's advice on a gaming rig I intend to build pretty soon. I have most of the parts finalized, just thought I could use some input from others who probably have more experience than me. First off, this is going to be an entirely new rig, everything needs to be bought, that means speakers, keyboard/mouse, monitor, case, motherboard, etc. I'm trying to keep this rig below $1800AUD although if it turns out that I really need to spend more, I'm definately willing. I do intend to overclock this PC, not heavily however. I'll be extremely happy if I can get the processor (an E8400) running at around 3.6-3.8 Ghz on stock cooling without too much effort. As time goes on however, I might buy a third party CPU cooler, and so I could use some recommendations there since I have no idea what a good brand/price is.

I live in Perth, Western Australia and currently I'm purchasing all my parts locally from the following stores:

NetPlus Micro Computers - http://www.netplus.com.au/

Austin Computers - http://www.austin.net.au

VTech Industries - http://www.vtechindustries.com.au

If anyone has any recommendations on places to buy computer parts, I'd love to hear them. Preferably stores located in WA, although if shipping isn't too expensive (i.e. the total price ends up being cheaper than the stores I've mentioned) I'm willing to buy outside of WA (but not internationally). Also I'm kinda trying to stay away from eBay, mainly because I've had a few bad experiences.

Mafia was a really good game, but my favourites would probably be the Monkey Island games and Grim Fandango.

Also, in my opinion, the Godfather game wasn't nearly as good as Mafia, but definately had a lot more action.
