why dont you buy a laptop? u can get a rocking lappie for tht much amount
@OP all above posts including mine can be discarded now. Adhere to my post nly if you feel that this money has soe value and s hard earned/saved.
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400
Upgrade to ore 2 quadro in 2007 mid, alan wake will run much fster on a quadro than on a dual core, you will need the money then, E6400 will do everything fabulously after a good overclock and even at stock it is a fast CPU
Asus P5W, the latest mobo, forgot the name but not PW or something, that mobo should cost around 15k+, that should be worth it as may use it for your CPU upgrade etc.
4 X 1GB DDR2 667/800 RAM, or get 2GB now and wait for price reduction
Seagate SATA II NCQ 300GB X 2
Radeon X1900XT, upgrade to Dx 10 R600 4-6 months down the line
19" Wide screen monitor
G5
normal keyobard
Antec NeoHE 500, upgrade with next upgrade.

It's not Quadro, it's Quad core. Quardo is the name of nVidia's workstation graphics cards.
Don't get 4x1 GB RAM. Get 2x2 GB. Running 4 chips is slightly slower than 2 chips.
For this rig, the primary HDD should be 2x Western Digital Raptor 150 GB 10,000 RPM SATA in RAID-0. Then add whatever else you want for additional storage.
DirectX 10 GPU's are going to consume over 300 watts. Double that for SLI/Crossfire. Get a 700-800 (or more) watt PSU right now instead of upgrading just a year later.

Yes, it is quad core. I know quadro is nvidia's GPU.
4 modules might not do well with AMD, but doesn't Intel do better with 4 modules? Anyway, getting a single 2GB modules may set back 15-20k, rather get 2 X 1GB RAM now and upgrade 2-4 months down the line when RAM prices become fine once again.
Raptor is very very expensive, and it may be fast, but it isn't fast enough for the price, so there is no point buying it unless he has enough money to spend atleast 1lac per year on his computer. Then also he has to think whether to invest in it or not. Besides Seagate 7200.10 drives are very fast.
Directx 10 cards will consume a lot of power. But getting anything over Antec NeoHE 500 is a waste. That PSU costs around 6k, Antec NeoHE 550 costs around 8k. He won't be using more than NeoHE 500 right now. The best PSU available in India is Antec Trio 650 which may or may not be available and will cost 9k+. That too may just about be able to take Dx 10 card but probably won't be recommended. So he basically wasted his 3k for nothing. Rather, buy NeoHe 500 now, sell it later or buy a separate PSU for the GPU, such PSUs have already reached newegg. That way you save the most and gain almost wholly.

Why should he have to shell out more in 6 months? A high end C2D with 4 GB RAM and a GX2 will last a really long time.
Just because Quad core is coming out soon dosen't oblige him to upgrade. Same for DDR3 RAM and DX10. Just because something new is going to come out dosen't mean you keep waiting.
DX10 isn't even going to matter for over a year after it's release because all games will be backwards compatible. No one with such a high end PC will waste money for a little more eye candy that DX10 will provide.

Games like Alan Wake require a Quad core if you want to run it smoothly on high setting. Although it maybe the only game, but still, there will be such a game.
4GB will be enough.
8800GTX/R600 will be like 1.5-2 times as fast as what he currently owns but offer much more eyecandy. It would be stupid not to upgrade if you have the money to shell.
Dx 10 is going to matter. PERIOD. Mark my word, April 2007 one and all will admit that Dx 10 is a big boon, it would either give fast speeds or better quality and infac both.
His current system won't be running Crysis at maxed settings, not maybe even at 10x7. Nor will he able to run AW at max settings.
I would advise to sell this card in Q1/Q2 2007 for around 15-20k if possible and get a single Dx 10 card. Alternately sell it now and get a Radeon X1900XT, that way you loose less and get better IQ + HDR and AA together.
If you want yo can sell the CPU now or later for the upgrade.

Your suggestions are fine for a hardcore gamer obsessed with playing everything at the highest settings. Not everyone falls in that category.
So what if Alan Wake and Crysis don't work at the highest settings with his config? When the Geforce 9 series comes out it will make the Geforce 8800GTX/R600 look slow. A person can't keep upgrading. There's just no end to it.
You're right about the X1900XT though. A Geforce 7950GX2 is overkill if you don't have a really huge monitor. A X1900XT will get the job done on a monitor upto 19" at a much lesser price.
