I'm going to get a new computer soon, but im looking for an ultimate gaming one you know. But im not rich so i cant afford anything over $1500. Anybody have any suggestions that i should do?

Wait till the end of the next quarter when we should see the arrival of BTX format motherboards and PCI-Express should become the standard. All this means good things for gaming.
