I'm planning on building a budget Intel CPU ATI GPU PC for roughly $850. I've compiled a few parts that I can build on, but could I get recommendations? (Would Intel+ATI be better or Intel+nVidia?) How would this perform?
■Intel i5 2500K CPU (Is this good enough to play modern games on max on a 1440x900?)
■Sapphire HD6950 2GB or 6850 1GB (Not sure if I'll use the card to it's fullest potential on a 1440x900 display with max, so if I could save some money, would 6850 be fine?
■GIGABYTE GA-H67A-UD3H-B3 Motherboard (Why is this so expensive? ... Are there any cheaper options?)
■Kingston 4GB 1333Mhz RAM
■WD Scorpio Blue/Black 320GB
■Antec TP-650 PSU
■NZXT Lexa-S
