Looking for a new computer

[force18]

Hey everyone I have a laptop which I am thinking of selling, but I was looking into making a decent gaming desktop. I was wondering what kindof computer you would buy with say about 1200-1400$ budget and reasons why.

I just would like to get other people's opinions.

Thanks to whoever replies.

Hmm....Gaming? No doubt an Intel Conroe Sytem and 2GB DDR2-800 memo, 7900GT (CC has a 279.99 one for sale.).

Not all mobos are expensive...this seems reasonably priced and the people at Xtremesystems are getting great OCing results with this board:

Giga 965p-DS3 is the best choice for conroe so far.
ECS,MSI also have good 965 boards but I only saw them in China and Japan.
