If you're getting it in a few months yet, chances are the ATI 4670 won't be around because the 5-series is taking over.

However, if you want to game at 1920x1080, you'd want a considerably beefier card. The 4670 would support that resolution, but then you'd have really horrible framerates. The best bet is to ask again when you're ready to order, because prices change and competition is fierce in the GPU department.

Heck, if you're primarily concerned with gaming, maybe consider an AMD based system. Their Phenom quads are cheaper than Intel's, and while not as fast for things like encoding, are more than fast enough for games. The money saved can go to a better GPU.

Your HD is a Caviar Green, so it won't be the fastest around. If you don't need 1.5GB, then pick one of these up instead:

The Spinpoint F3 is really, really fast for its class, and considerably cheaper than the WD you posted.

Edit: Yes, internet connectivity is built into the board.

The only game where everyone competes to be an e-janitor.
