hi guys i plan to assemble pc but i'm a bit confused.kindly help me im choosing configuration.also please mention prices.

1. I need a motherboard which is around 5k but a good performer.
2. Processor E8400 or Q9300.
3. 2 gb ram 800 mhz.
4. 8800gt or 9600gt (please suggest less expensive but good performing brands.)
5. HDD 320GB (suggest brand WD or SG or SS).
6. Power supply sufficient and good (not more than 1.5K)
7. CASE (around 1.5K).

ALSO is 8800gt better enough than 9600gt to shell out extra bucks.
And if i opt for SLI ( i plan to buy 2nd card later), suugest some good mobo but not more than 7K in price.
