Honestly man, if you just want the experience of building a computer you shoudl really think about what kind of options you want.
Here are a few articles that will help you decide: how many cores do you really need? http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/multi-core-cpu,2280.html CPU preformance charts: http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/processors,6.html best bang for buck graphics Apr 09' http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/radeon...e-gtx,2270.html how much ram is too much? http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/memory...grade,2264.html Tom's HDD guide 2008 http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/hdd-te...e-1tb,2077.html Just keep in mind, that even the most graphics intensive games do not need top of the line hardware. Most high-end hardware is overkill. Buy what you need or build around a budget for the most bang for buck.
