Well im getting a quad core, 2.6.... 8gb RAM and i already have a 9600 GT Geforce 1Gb DDR3 256 BIT
Don't get that much ram. I think you would be better off only getting 4 gb (or 6 gb if i7) and spending the remaining cash on a more expensive gfx card, like a HD4850 or GTX285.

If its i7 then you can't get 8 gb ram anyway i dont think. i7 can only work with tri channel ram which means three ram sticks and i think it only comes in 3, 6 and 12 gb sizes. If you go 8 gb you must be getting some ddr2 dual channel stuff which won't work.
