wtf do you think Intel is doing in the future? They are abandoning the FSB in upcoming chips in favor of a similar technology.
In the CPU world: Intel is ahead of AMD in desktops as of now.
In the GPU world: AMD is shitting on everyone right now. The chips are efficient and extremely fast, not to mention they are absolute overclock monsters. AMD loves to run their GPU fans at like 20% for some reason, so turn it up and those 80c temps are going to cut in half... or you can just get a superior cooler for $20 that takes 5 minutes to install.

GIGABYTE GA-965P-DS3 mobo
INTEL Q6600 CPU
ATI 4850 GFX
500GB SATA HDD
20x SAMSUNG DVDRW
650W PSU (is this enough? or too much?)
i'm undecided on a case yet |
don't look at wattage on a PSU. Rails (and quality)are infinitely more important.
just get a good 500w, go look at corsair.

if you get a new cooler you can overclockit by like 25-30%

There's so many nVidia fanboys from the last generation of cards. Immature kiddies that think just because a manufacturer dominated one round, that they're the best completely.
nVidia's current lineup is pathetic to say the least.
