my budget is around 1100$ but im open to suggestions.
cpu - e4300 - 140$
hdd - seagate 320gb 7200.10 - 87$
ram - ocz plat. rev. 2 800mhz ddr2 - 120$
mobo - gigabyte ga-p35c-ds3r - 215$
video card - sapphire x1950 xt 256mb - 220$
psu - corsair hx 520w - 120$
case - antec 900 - 123$
=1025$ without tax/MIRs
rig will be primarily used for valve/blizz games and stalker.
planning on ocin the 4300 to ~3 gigz but im not sure if i need an aftermarket cooler.
i will be using a 22" ws lcd with this rig but im not sure about the 256mb version as i dont think it'll keep up @ that res(1680x1050).
im not too sure about the 520w psu either, as i will be upgradin to a 2nd gen dx10 card/wolfdale/ddr3 ram when prices are right as i would like to play crysis/hellgate/sc2 when they eventually come out.
