This will be used mainly for gaming, on a 1600x1050 monitor. I mainly play Warcraft now but I want it to be able to handle any new games that come out such as Diablo III, etc. I want it to be upgradeable as well, for example adding another Video Card somewhere down the line.
My budget is around $900, I can go slightly higher if the performance upgrade for doing so would be worth it.
Here is what I have so far:
Antec 900 - $110
ASUS P5Q Pro LGA 775 Intel P45 ATX Intel Motherboard - $130
SAPPHIRE 100245L Radeon HD 4850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - $160 ($15 Rebate)
CORSAIR CMPSU-750TX 750W ATX12V / EPS12V SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Power Supply - $120 ($20 Rebate)
Intel Core 2 Duo E8500 Wolfdale 3.16GHz 6MB L2 Cache LGA 775 65W Dual-Core Processor - $188
mushkin 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - $50 ($20 Rebate)
Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD6400AAKS 640GB 7200 RPM 16MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive - $75
Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium SP1 64-bit English for System Builders 1pk DSP OEI DVD - $100
Total = $933 - $55 Rebate = $878
Thanks for the help!
