Edited. The total is same.
Dunno how I missed it while getting the total right.
SB is much better if he can wait.
2400 and DH67CL for extra 3k is easily worth it.

955BE is a good cpu but not as good as a hexa core though I would suggest you get SB 2500K cpu along with a P67 ( new revision ) / Z68 mobo.
If you want something around 7-8K then look for HD5770 or Asus Direct Cu TOP GTS450 ( 925 MHz ! ).
For 10K you have several option like GTX460 from MS or HD6850 - GTS550 will be available shortly anyway ( at the end of march/mid april ).
A 22 inch HD monitor is more suitable for you

Thanks for your suggestions buddy will surely look forward to the sb proccy mobo combinations in the months to come
how are the sb proccys compared to x6 proccys in gaming and multitasking features and by the way arent the p67 and h67 mobo's expected to hit the market again by the end of april or beginning of may this year ??
Intel has lost almost 1bn$ coz of this set back so that may put an increase in the price of their processors in the future and a slow growth in their research of new processors and the rate at which h/w technology is growin at the moment s/w tech is atleast 5 years behind it wudnt yall agree

Hey guys, I'm ordering CM Hyper 212+ & MSI Cyclone from SMC.. on the ship methods page, there is DTDC Express @ 500 bucks & DTDC Surface is 100 bucks! I know Express if by air & it'll reach me quicker but if Surface saves me 400 bucks & is safe, then I can go with that. So is DTDC Surface safe option?

One of my friends needs a VFM system. Requirements would be:
1. Absolutely no gaming.
2. 19" DELL support 1440 x 900.
3. Integrated GPU. (Does not want a GPU)
4. Wi-FI motherboard.
5. Intel Build, but greater than LGA775.
6. Decent cabinet.
7. Quick enough CPU for Win7 support with complimenting RAM.
He will carry over a CX400 and 2 HDDs from his current build.

Thanks....! Please could you re-do it. Sorry was not clear in my first post. Remove the following:
Monitor
DVD-ROM
Speakers
Mouse
Keyboard
UPS
Now can you recommend a IGP motherboard with Wi-Fi and a complimenting CPU. I think >=3 GB RAM is needed. He will want Aero and all that jazz.
Else since he is not buying too much equipment, a board where we can fit an HTPC GPU. Maximum one PEG connector since he has a CX400. Make two grids.
By the way, LOVE those grids of yours...! Keep it up.

Sorry i should have made myself a bit more clear. Was in hurry
as u mentioned 2 grids, was another one for a separate htpc config? Or this one for all purposes?
And for hd content i3's graphics are sufficient. No need of discreet card.
