Cooler Master CM690 ATX, possibly the best casing with the best valueNow i will explain why I choose these spec, The Processor, the heart of every PC. As u all know no one smart enough to upgrade a processor in future (not worth it as it will be almost same as buying a new set of PC) so i choose Core2Quad Family and 2.4Ghz (E6600) is the most lowest and cheapest in Core2Quad family, therefore E6600 is the most valur processor for me.
The Mainboard, the barebone for all PC. I choose Intel P35 Chipset. Intel is a very well trusted by me by the quality and stability. Choose the right chipset and brand is important to a PC. (eg: Core2Quad processor in BTX based mainboard = useless) To choose a mainboard, firstly you need to plan what hardware to assemble in before buy a mainboard (how many RAM, PCI-E card, PCI Slot, IDE ports, back panel ports, socket compatibility and etc) once planned search for the right chipset. Remainder! New mainboard does not have Parallel port on back panel and mostly will have only 1 IDE ports (Support up to 2 IDE devices). MSI design their hardware with a special freature called D.O.T (Dynamic Overclocking Technology), Its a very user friendly and safe overclocking software for all user. Every 3rd party company will have their own freature added, just liek MSI for D.OT. Also the chipset heatsink looks cool!

RAM is important for Microsoft Window Vista as Vista "eat" up alot of memory for animation and graphics processing. The max RAM supported for a 32-bits based OS is only 4GB and 64-bits is 8GB. Do remember that 64-bits OS known problem compatibility with large number of software and games. Therefore i highly not recommend 64-bits for anyone. I do remind that 64-bits OS does eat more memory that 32-bits OS does, so is not worth upgrade for. I choose A-Data brand over Kingston and Corsair due to tomshardware latest report. (http://www.tomshardware.com/). Over several testing report Corsair and Kinston ranked middle in every test. Also a friend of mine working warranty dept. in a PC store told me that there are a large number Kingston and COrsair RAM under warranty.... A-Data although look noob but their ram ranked top 5 in most of the test.
Why MSI GeForce 8800GT OC edition? 8800GT GPU is the most value graphic card on the market, since my part getting direct from supplier the cost for a non overclock version and OC version different arounf RM30 only...Why MSI again? again is because of the D.O.T enabled in both Graphic Card and Mainboard.

Attention to all Gamers! I been searching for years for a Widescreen LCD that supported both widescreen games and non widescreen games. (widescreen LCD that do not support non-widescreen games will cause distorted image) My search come to an end! thanks to LG W2252TQ a 22" LCD with 10,000:1 contrast ratio and 4:3 Aspect Ration Control. LG may not have better colour than Samsung LCD but the quality ain't so far plus the aspect ratio control is a savior to all non widescreen games (eg: warcraft 3 and NFS carbon) More info click here >>> http://my.lge.com/prodmodeldetail.do?actType=search&page=1&modelCategoryId=050102&categoryId=050102&parentId=0501&modelCodeDisplay=W2252TQ&model=Select+a+model
Others part of the hardware can be depended on individual.eg: CPU heatsink, Hard Disk, Optical Drive and such.
