MEMORY: Corsair 1gb (2x512MB) 184 Pin DDR SDRAM Dual Channel

HD: no clue, i wanted something cheap but good for gaming, and around 80gb or more
2of these: CD/DVD DRIVE: LITE-ON Black 16x DVD-ROM 52x CD-R http://www.newegg.com/Product/CustratingReview.asp?item=N82E16827106992
VGA: XFX Geforce 6800GS 256MB

All of that plus the cost of the case im going to get from fry's ($80) plus assuming ($100 give or take for HD) comes out to about $850. These parts seemed like they would make a great system for the price.
