First off, how to I share a wishlist from newegg? Would make this whole ordeal alittle smoother.

Case:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119227

Mobo:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157281

CPU:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103996

GPU:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150561

RAM:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231455

SSD:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820148441

PSU:

Drive:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827136240

This is the list I threw together in 10 minutes of deal searching. Machine is requested to be upgrade-free for a few years and run Diablo 3:

Windows® Vista/7 (latest service packs)
Intel® Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz or AMD Athlon™ 64 X2 5600+ 2.8 GHz
2 GB RAM
NVIDIA® GeForce® 260 or ATI Radeon™ HD 4870 or better

So it should be no problem. Any recommendations on where to shave off the ~$80 I'm over? Client has keyboard/mouse/monitor.

Thanks in advance!

Yeah I missed that. You do need a higher wattage PSU or another GPU with less requirements. And a sata HDD should be included in your build or a bigger ssd (you think your over budget now don't even look at larger ssd's). :(

The GPU 7750 is a 55 watt part. It does not need any special power supply, it does not even have a PCIe power connector. You might be dissapointed in its performance and you might be better served with a 7770 or a 6850 instead.

I would skip the ssd and put that money into a better GPU if your going to game on a budget. SSD is nice because it can save a few seconds on bootup, and if you install your favorate game to it can make the game load faster, but it will not get you extra FPS.
