Based on some comments I received from another post, I decided to up my limit to $1500 before taxes for my gaming system. I am looking to play BF3 and diablo3 on maximum settings on a 22inch 1080p monitor. Please let me know what you think of the components I decided on so far. I am looking to buy be end of day tomorrow. Thanks in advance.
