Somewhat flexible on the price, $600 is ideal but I can go a bit higher if it's a huge performance difference... absolutely no higher than $750.

Parts Not Required: Keyboard, mouse, monitor, DVD, speakers, OS

Parts Preferences: by brand or type: Prefer Intel. I also prefer NVidia but am open to ATI if it's that big of a price/performance gap

Thanks.
