Hello All, I would appreciate any feedback that you might have regarding my current build. I would like to order the parts within the next few weeks. But am willing to wait until July if there's a good reason to wait. My budget is around $800.00. I currently have an ATI HD 4830 so I chose a 4850 to crossfire with it in my new build but I would consider other options within my budget.
