I'm thinking of building a new gaming PC with these components, and want some second thoughts.
I only had a budget of $750 Canadian, and this build hits it right on the nose. (After rebates)

This is my first build and I would appreciate any help I can get, such as telling me if there is any better parts that will still keep me under budget.
Thanks a bunch! :)
