NewBie / Gittin Ready 2 Roll

I have never built a computer b4. Had a helluva time trying to decide whether to go AMD or Intel...decided to go Intel...P4C800-E Deluxe. Been waiting a long time to do this...sittin here on a Gateway350MHZ. Anyways can anyone help me decide what to put onto this board? How about the 3.2 CPU...I want to kick some serious butt. I would greatly appreciate anyone who takes thier time to reply to this thread. Thanx ^-_-^

How many $$$ you want to spend?

That, in a nutshell, decides everything.

I have about 2000 total to spend on my machine.
