$500 gaming pc?

can you guys come up with the best parts possible for a $500-$600 gaming rig? that's basically my budget, and nothing higher.
what i need is:

cpu
ram
case
motherboard
psu
dvd drive or w/e
graphics card

i don't need a hard drive though. Thanks in advance.

This Athlon 5200 and GIGABYTE GA-MA770-DS3 combo $118.99

Kingston RAM 4GB (2x2GB) $36.99

I like the SMILODON. There is a new version with a 530W PSU, but its one with LEDs in it and those seem to be a little worse.

RAIDMAX SMILODON Extreme Black 500W PSU $99.99

LITE-ON 20X DVD±R DVD Burner Black SATA Model iHAS120-08 - Retail $25.99

Sapphire Radeon 4850 1GB $179.99

Giving you a grand total of $461.95 before shipping or any rebates. The Raidmax PSU is good enough for this system with a single Radeon 4850, but if you want to do crossfire latter you on you will certainly need a better PSU. If you're going to push your budget to the limit you may try and go with a slightly better CPU/motherboard combo.

This is the ELEVENTH thread you have started on this subject in the last two months.

You have had tons of help from everyone on this board. If you can't figure it out by now, at least enough to generate your own list and ask for approval, I suggest you should just go buy a Dell.

this is tom's latest article. a $625 system.
