What sorts of suggestions are you looking for? Comments on the parts you listed? Suggestions for substitutions? Complete rig ideas? Help us out, here.

Do you know what sort of budget your dad is considering? Knowing how much scratch is at stake will help shape any ideas the Orgahs will have ...

Definitely avoid the p4 if you can - it's way out of date; same with the radeon 9800 if that was what was suggested

Step dad and no i cant remember off hand but before he went out to poker he said he'd custom build build me a gaming computer if i gave him my laptop all i know is it's the same as my moms and i can play RTW on full graphics at 1200x1024 up to about 5000 units(so far RTW is most requiring game other than Company of Heroes) but i dont play that as often since my video card fried and i got a ****** replacement.

(Careful with language, asterisks please - LEN)\

sorry
