Hey guys I ordered a rig for my friend with him last night and I want to know what you guys think! He wanted a rig that would play MMORPG's with no lag and some FPS games like BF3 and Combat Arms. He really did not care what the graphic setting he played at so I put this together:

His budget was about $750-800. Ignore the Win 7 cost because he can get it for free. This build had to be extremely reliable so I made sure I payed attention to quality on it. Most of you are going to say "wow how unbalanced.. a 750Ti with an i5" But like I said.. He doesnt care about what graphics quality he plays on.. He wanted Nvidia and Intel too so I couldnt stop him
Thanks for your thoughts
I think I will post back with the progress before next Tuesday!
