Default AMD Build - Phenom 945
Here is my new build - tentative:

CPU: Phenom II 945 - http://www.overclock.net/sale/553896...ireless-n.html
MB: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128378
PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006
RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227320
Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811112194

Same video and sound card in sig. What do you think? Maybe new hard drive, but we'll see.

Will be updated as things change, should be latest plan.

I would look at This Case + PSU combo

And I would get this OCZ Reaper RAM over the G.Skill

Well, I changed case to the Lian-Li and the PSU is for future proofing as I may go crossfire 4870/90's in the future.

As for the RAM, and reason why that one over the gskill?

For the power supply, I would go with this instead: Antec TruePower New TP-750 750W Continuous Power ATX12V - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817371025 Other than that, everything is good to go

tighter timings on them. And I know they work really well with the MA790FXT at the rated specs.

Have a look at the Lian-Li PC-K58

As for PSU, I would look at newer, better builds, like the SevenTeam ST-750ZAF

Rosewill Bronze Series 750watt

or Corsair HX850

Seconded on the Rosewill 750Watt. I have 4 power supplies by them and they have been rock solid regardless of other peoples opinions about them.
