Hey...2000$ is alot of money and can get you a pretty high end system if you have a monitor, keyboard, etc. For a motherboard I would either go for an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum, that way you can use SLI with 2 cards now, or just buy one and put another in once you have the money. For a processor I would get a 4000+ San Diego, or either one of the new dual-core CPUs or an FX-55 if you can afford it. As for a video card, either get dual GeForce 6800GTs for SLI, or get a single GeForce 7800GTX, either one will work for you nicely. For a case, basically get anything you want, but get one thats quiet and comes without a PSU, and then buy a 500W or more PSU to put in your case, because most of the time the PSUs that come with cases are cheap and aren't all that good for high-end systems. For a hard-drive get 2 200gb or so and put them in RAID 0, or 2 WD Raptors if you can afford them. Anyways good luck

Thanks guys but your suggestions seem a bit high. My budget is $2000 or lower. These setups will run more then that

Not by that much if you dont buy an expensive case and get a good but cheap PSU and a smaller cpu you can get the RAM and you can get the 7800GTX. And no water cooling well maybe cheap water cooling like the cool river set.
