Right now I'm using a 8800 GTS and a 17 inch crt moniter, so it looks like I need to upgrade. I was thinking of getting this moniter

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp;jsessionid=ONE3DQLVLTU25KC4D3JVAFI?skuId=8241084&productCategoryId=pcmcat104900050013&type=product&tab=1&id=1168044601867

but I've heard bad things about the TN panels. So could anyone offer any input or suggest a new 22 inchmoniter lcd moniter in th 200-275 price range. And I live in th USA, so newegg is an option.

I just want to know what the idle\load temps should be on a Core 2 Duo and a 8800 GTS, because I'm getting 48/66 on the Core 2 Duo with stock cooling and 60/80 on the GTS, also with stock.

Yeah, I plan on playing with 8 AA and16 AF on games like OblivionuntilIget the 22 inch Samsung. That PSU doesn't have blue lights and I'm kinda partial to the quad 12 volt rails, but if modular is a must, I guess I would go with this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16817194003

I will be buying these parts for my computer. I will be overclocking so I will get an aftermarket cooler later

This case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119077

Hard drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16822144701

GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16814130082

Optical Drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16827135143

PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16817341010

RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16820231098

Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813128059

And this Proc': http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16819115014

So, does any one have anything to change. The price is $847.95 INCLUDING shiping, so I'd like to keep it under $850 with shipping. Also, I heard that eVga's warranty covers overclocking, but I can't find the page on the website that says that. Could someone link me to it. Oh, and I'll be playing at 10*7

To skinnypete91, yes I would prefer it, but only because Nvidia/Intel has the best stuff at the moment. I'm no fanboy of any brand. Also, does anybody know that when you buy a EVGA GPU and register it, does the 90 day step up period start from the date of purchase or when you register?
