NEC 4571 16X BLACK DVD-RW LABELFLASH TECHNOLOGY
MSI NX7600GS-T2D256EHL PASSIVE 256MB PCI-EXPRESS 7600 GS
WESTERN DIGITAL 320GB-KS 16MB SATA300 7200RPM
ZALMAN 80MM ZM-F1 CASE FAN
MSI K9NU NEO-V NVIDIA M1697 SOCKET AM2
KINGSTON 1024MB DDR2 PC5400
AMD 3500+ 64BIT ATHLON AM2 BOXED
LOGITECH RX300 BLACK OPTICAL MOUSE OEM
RAINBOW BASIC KEYBOARD BLACK (8986)
TONES 520WATT POWER SUPPLY DUAL BLUE LED

Goal: to achieve a system that is both fast enough for gaming (without fancy AA/AF), some simple video-editing and surfing; at a low price.
Only thing I'm not sure of is the motherboard. It ís cheap though.

Any ideas?

Also, I need a monitor, preferably a TFT (and if possible, from this page

: http://www.tones.be/shop_producten.php?cat=250 )
Any suggestions?

no 7600GS, at least 7600GT, GT is considerably faster and not much pricier. it should not cost more than €150, otherwise the X1900GT for €200 becomes the much better deal

for gaming VIDEO Card is all it's about, the CPU doesn't really matter much;

Well, that's the problem, I've been waiting for his reply (3rd person) for a few days now, but got no response. I guess 1000~1200 is ok, but I try to stay as low as possible..

It's easier to lift up the price that to put it down
