Solution

It's Australia,which means Australian dollars.A expensive country/continent to get pc parts.

I don't see it happening with such a expensive gpu and that budget.

The closest i can get is this,

PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks

CPU: AMD FX-4300 3.8GHz Quad-Core Processor ($125.00 @ CPL Online)
Motherboard: ASRock 970 Extreme3 ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($99.00 @ CPL Online)
Memory: G.Skill Ripjaws Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($95.00 @ CPL Online)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($69.00 @ CPL Online)
Case: Cooler Master K280 ATX Mid Tower Case...

For £150 you can get the Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 and the AMD FX 6300/4100/4130. That's the best your going to get for that money. You can get the motherboard and the 4130 for about £130.

Hope this helps

really the closest i could get. In both systems no dvd plyer.
Case is the same price as your choice,which one you take is up to you,i like the "Haf look" of this one.
