It all depends on what you might like.
There are many aspects to building a computer.
32-bit, 64-bit, etc etc.
Processor wise, I would use both.
But for video cards, I recommend nVidia.

Not too sure about the graphics, maybe you could push an extra $20 and get a 4850 :

here are some performance tests and it wipes the floor with the pre gtx nvidias.

Have you got a case?
Otherwise its pretty good, basically identical to my pc except with a better mobo, it will play left 4 dead and other games perfectly maxed out at high res.

Just a question about this build you guys have...
1GB RAM on a Vista system?
I max out at 2.8GB RAM out of my 3.3 at times.
And thats when I game and do general rendering on photoshop.
I think you'd want to add more RAM to that.

He is buying 4 sticks of the 1gb ram, as shown in the "SGD18.00 x4"
