If you're getting a PC for Diablo 3, do not get a PC yet, it would be stupid.
Regarding whoever said you can't go wrong with eVGA, that's pretty dumb to say. They are among the cheapest in quality and hence in price, which means the highestly likelyhood of something going wrong. After about 6-12 months of use I think it was, a video card I had had a cap blow on it, and since eVGA had like a short ass warrenty, it couldn't be replaced.
CPU will probably not be too important considering it's a 3D game which emphisizes graphics, and doesn't have to deal too much with physics or ridiculously large armies.
you're obviously don't know what you're saying, EVGA is on of the top card manufacturers, along with BFG and XFX. Yeah they're so shitty, that why they won so many customer choice awards right? and saying that a CPU wont matter because a 3D game emphasizes graphics shows that you know nothing about how the GPU and CPU communicate. If they keep the graphics the way they showed them at WWI then a 8800GT would perform very smoothly.
you will be able to get much cheaper ram sticks and they will still work fine
they'll work fine but typically their cas latency will be higher... and their timing slower... but i found a bitchin deal for ya :P: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820145184 Same speed, same timing, same cas latency plus corsair is way more reliable. ($50+ off with rebates)
I also forgot to add that you have everything for your build... except a monitor. what use is a desktop without a monitor? Get a glossy screen if you live in a cave, or keep your comp in a dark place, because they make the colors really pop out and shine. otherwise, i recommend a samsung.
if you really must build your pc NOW then go for the 8800gt you have in your cart, best bang for ur buck imo, and cant go wrong with evga graphics.. also, you wont need quad core for d3, but with the new 45nm core 2 quads priced at $260, i'd shoot for one of those (not the old 65nm you have in your cart). for ram, get some modest ddr2 ram, 2x1GB sticks should be plenty, i recommend corsair's xms2. for a hdd, as long as its sata and something over 7200rmp your fine. the psu you're lookin at is a big pricey, you can get a 650watt BFG psu for $44, or better yet, here is a different coolermaster 650watt for $80 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171014. The case you choose it really up to you, just make sure you really like it, because you're gonna be using it everytime you rebuild your system.
