    It would run it, but the resolution of your screen determines how well.

    It should do fine then.

    NTW is a CPU heavy game so you'll want a 2.5Ghz.+ dual core CPU.

    Will this processor do well AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor 3.0GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 125W Dual-Core Processor - OEM?

    I wouldn't get an OEM CPU such as that, although it would do fine OEM means it doesn't come with a heatsink, it's much cheaper to get a CPU that comes with a heatsink then to buy one separately.

    Newegg.com is the cheapest place to buy PC parts in the US.

    Would this be better AMD Athlon II X2 255 Regor 3.1GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM3 65W Dual-Core Desktop Processor?
    Also do you have any suggestions when it comes to motherboards?

    The one you mentioned would work but it is a poor value for the money. I'd highly recommend this CPU AMD Athlon II X2 245 2.9Ghz. AM3 Dual Core Processor I use it on my "Internet computer" (I have 4 computers) it's a very fast CPU with a great price, it would do well with your 9800GT.

    The Motherboard you get depends on what CPU you want, as different boards work with different CPU's.

    I think I will get the one that you are suggesting. What motherboard would you suggest with that CPU?

    I use the GIGABYTE GA-MA785GM-US2H Motherboard with that CPU, it's a great board with upgrade options.

    You need RAM, Hard Drive, Power Supply CD/DVD drive and a case. It really doesn't matter what DVD drive and case you get. There are of course cheaper options for the 3 suggestions I made, but IMO those are your best value for the money, they give you the best warranties and the highest quality parts for the cheapest price.

    You will also need a copy of Windows ironically the OS is the most expensive part.

    I got all my parts picked out now. Now are there any tips I need to know about when it comes to actually building the computer?

    Don't build on carpet, touch a metal object occasionally to ground yourself, static electricity can ruin PC components. The motherboard includes instructions to help you put everything together.

    This will be my build. What do you think? Let me know if that attachment works.

    Can't tell much looking at it. none of the pictures enlarge when I open them so I can't hardly see what's there.
