PC setup.

Well after playing on my laptop for about 2 seconds after frying my vid card i have decided it sux and i need to either get a new vid card or get n1 new pc.
So what i need from you crossfire ppl is advise on just that.
Since my pc is ancient i'll just go for a full overhaul.
So i need from you a good setup that i can build myself (not top end, don't need retarded expcensive shit that just came out that i don't need for most games anyhow, like omg wtf quazillion billion dubble mega cores).
+setup should only include all normal hardware (no monitor etc. just basic hardware since my budget isn't unlimited)
+should be able to run newest games like CoD4 etc.
+shouldn't be too expensive but seeing i haven't decided on how big my budget is gonna be i'm open for all options. (as long as you don't suggest silly hydrogen cooled expensive crap)
PS. I need a FULL setup including soundcard harddisks etc.

Thx for all your help :D

dunno about soundcard, take one from around 70-80€ Creative X-fi extreme gamer or music or something.
Parent
where is the difference between the onboard soundchip and an alternative soundcard ?
Parent
guess better sound, but you only really need if if you are a pro music maker orso i think.
