You may want to reconsider this motherboard because if I remember correctly NVIDIA has stopped making motherboard chipsets. I just recently built a computer very similar to what you have listed here, but with an ASUS motherboard and two (Crossfire) ATI video cards.

I have the links saved in a word document if you want that. What do you plan on doing with this system? I might be able to spice it up more or even tone it down. But what I listed would be one insane machine that would actually in some areas be better than what you had listed. Stay away from Nvidia's new stuff right now, they are having a lot of problems with the chips literally catching on fire. Also if you must do Nvidia, get a 8800 and not the 9800 chipsets, same chipset but overclocked, so you are paying extra for the name and a little bit faster speed (pointless). I'm a Nvidia guy but there new stuff is less than impressive and I might be switching over to ATI to pick up one of the new 4870s with the DDR5 ram

then what I listed for you will be plenty of power for that (it will easily run Crysis at max), kind of overkill for COD, not sure about Warhammer, if it is like Crysis then you should be fine. My friend has a simliar setup with the same card and just the stuff I listed is quite a bit better than his considering he doesn't have that sound card nor the quad processor.

np, I've been building computers as a hobby for probably around 7 years now, something I do for fun ...all though last year I worked at a computer shop building them but now I do IT work in Atlanta, so no more fun building computers except on the side. I don't charge anything to build them becuase it is something I do for pure fun and enjoy getting to see the users faces light up on how quick their machine is after I build them one. Recently I just built one for a old customer I use to have come in when I worked at RadioShack, was only like $500 to build and it blew them out of the water
just the problem is, they call me frequently with questions...I'm about to start charging them for each call so they will stop using all my montly minutes :\

[maxmcleod]

what do you hope to do with this machine?
a lot of the specs are big time overkill for a htpc... but if you're after future proofing it for games, then you're good
