I would go with the dual core 3800... little more expensive, but worth it... and wait until the end of the month when AMD supposedly drops all their prices on the chips. But the rest looks good!

do you absolutely need/want wireless internet? I would suggest wired, in my personal experience, and those that I know, wireless has been nothing but problematic.

I would go with either the dual core 3800 or the san diego 3700.

And I would also get the eVGA 7900GT KO superclocked version
