A. The computer is certainly going to be a gaming beast, but it's overkill, and you could rearrange you budget a bit better for pure gaming.
Frankly it looks like you've got money to burn, and you want an all-around fast computer, not necessarily focussed on gaming
EVGA with 780i chipset doesn't do DDR3 or i7, I am pretty sure.
FOR GAMING: I still wouldn't go with the i7 (e8400/e8500 save $100), or DDR3 (save $100 and get 2GB or 4GB of fast DDR2), or a discrete soundcard (save around $175, use onboard), or a TEC cooler (save $100 and get sunbeam direct contact aircooler)
Between that and the lower-end DDR2 motherboard, you should save $500 or more, which is a major monitor and/or video card upgrade. That will improve your gaming more than the parts I downgraded would have. Of course, much more in the video card, and you may actually want to go bigger on power supply - those high end cards claim to pull close to 300W (which is more than my entire system)!
That 22" monitor is gonna be pretty sad looking next to such a beast of a PC. Monitors are very important to the overall enjoyment of your computer - do NOT skimp here. This may sound crazy, but I'd suggest budgeting about 1/3 of your total budget on the monitor(s). Next year this will be an ordinary gaming machine, but a big nice monitor will *still* kick butt.
Also, your storage is gonna be the slowest part of this system. Consider a Velociraptor, SSD, or maybe even RAID (Intel Matrix RAID is built into high end Intel chipsets, and can be faster than hell - but I think you can only get it with Crossfire, not SLi)

Whats the cheapest gaming computer setup?
Q. Cheapest setup rig?
Custom Ram,
Video card,
and Cooler fans.
Custom Ram,
Video card,
and Cooler fans.
A. I wouldn't say there is a cheapest gaming computer setup because, there are thousands of possibilities.
If you're looking to play today's heavy duty game, it's going to cost you a little more.
I would suggest you go to http://www.newegg.com and do a little shopping around there for parts that would suit your needs for a gaming computer,
If you're looking for performance, and to save money, I would recommend an AMD based pc
but for today's games, you would at least need, a dual core processor, 2+ gigs of ram, and a 512mb video card (DX9 compatible)
