OK i was very frustrated last time i posted. But i now return to you with purchases. I am currently out of town in indy and found a Frys. I was shocked. I never been to one before and they are great.

I got great deals on everything i have purchased so far...one of my goals....

case: thermaltake M9
psu: Thermaltake toughpower 650w -----Bought in combo with case, got both for total of $94
cpu: e8500
Mobo: Gigabyte Ep45-ds3r Bought in combo with cpu for around $300
cpu cooloer: Zalman 9500, $25
HDD: WD sata 500gb $80

ram:???? mushkin im guessing?
videocard: 4870 or 4850 i really am on the fence about which
monitor: also unsure, need a 22" not real expensive.....

RAM
Low voltage, low timings, good price.

GPU
Dual slot cooling, more future proof than a 4850.


Monitor


You can't get those three items for $400.00. If you want to cut corners you should get the 4850, but you are still a bit over.
