Hi i have been thinking about building this rig for christmas:

-Bare Drive $70
Item #: N82E16822148433
WINDOWS 7 system builder $100
TOTAL $720
now my question is: is this system worth buying (bang for bucks wise). and will my system run into a bottleneck. Would i be better of with a cheaper cpu for a better gpu? because i think this cpu is a bit overkill.
I dont know anything about mobo's so any help is much appreciated. And is the psu able to handle this system.
also do i need an network card or is it already built in the mobo.
i already got a screen, and my preffered res is 1200x800, but i am able to buy a HD screen relatively soon.
thanks for relpying.
