Totals $638.92 before tax, shipping, and rebates. Rebates = $40

I recommend going with this RAM to save $30

This GPU to save on shipping

or better quality

If you make those change the total after rebates but before tax and shipping will be $565

Double check that but I believe it is accurate.

By the way, what games do you play? You may not even need the 6850 and we could just go with a 5770 to save about $50.

 

[Coel]

I'll be playing mostly Neverwinter Nights 2 and Mount and Blade Warband maxing out with 500 units on screen.

 

[trainwreck14]

Well, a 6850 would provide you with some longevity but I'm sure you can get away with just a 5770 to save yourself some cash.

Hmm in the intrest of 1920 x 1080 gaming, one could actually land more juicier frames/$$ returns on AM3 these days so

$540AR

Optional: Hit an after market HSF if planning to clock asap

Usual suspects

CM Hyper 212+
Scythe Yasya
Scythe Mugen 2
