Hey guys! I have intention to upgrade my computer and this is what we came up with. I'm a little ignorant on what's good and what's not, and I was considering the WoW Cube but due to multiple reasons I'm going to need to build it from mostly scratch. This is a gaming computer for around 600~ worth of items.

These are the items my father came up with when he did a search, a form of rough draft, and I wanted to run it by you guys and see what you all thought. We're looing at a quad core cpu with a double video card set up, supposedly it's alot better? I wanted to know what your guys opinions are, he's pretty pissed that I won't just take his word for it but I don't want all that money to be spent and find out it was a stupid mistake :P. So if anyone that's knowledgeable about this and would like to take a whack at helping that'd be awesome.
(5-6 hundred, apparently wants AMD over Intel, we'll be buying the parts over a few month period.)
