Your missing a free-gift combo with your CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...Size=10&page=1
That USB-Wrist is free with that CPU. (2nd one down) Other then that your build looks good, I would do that instead of buying from Dell.

Just build a new computer, but AMD cpu's do not load their cpu's with a lot of cache as intel does (which is very good for gaming).
I would say go with intel for gaming, but if you are a die hard amd fan, then by all means go with: 5400+ tuniq tower // xigmatek s1283 2x1gb g.skill ga-MA78GM-s2h 8800GS // 8800GT

dell makes the least compatible systems. once you get a dell, it is very difficult to slowly upgrade.
stay away from dell, and build yourself a desktop.
