Hello, I’m new to building computers however I’m looking at building an i7 computer. Can you please make suggestions if the following components are ok and if I can make any improvements? Also is it ok to install windows xp and once the computer is stable and working ok to then install (buy) window vista? Would I still be able to play games when running windows xp?

It looks pretty good for a low cost i7 build. The motherboard is perfect, good low cost RAM, great PSU and good GPU (as long as your getting a good deal on it). What is your budget?
