You should really get an Intel processor with that kind of budget. The E8400 will perform much better in games than a slower quad core or the 5000+.

E8400: $170

Asus P5K Deluxe: $150

4GB DDR2-1066 RAM: $105

Asus HD4870: $255

Antec 650W PSU: $70

Cooler Master Case: $50

For the HD4870 you'd be fine with a 500 watt PSU, but the 9800GX2 requires at least a 600W.


That comes out to exactly $800. All the parts are top of the line. Will run pretty much any game except Crysis at max settings.
 
correct me if im wrong

but the q6600 bundle has half of the memory in the one i originally wanted to get and it is 100 dollars more

only upgrade on the q6600 is the power supply which i could upgrade myself for 60$

and thank you for everyone posting these great suggestions for me!
 
yeah but its also 300 bucks more!

if the bundles will run all of those games and run the games to come then i am find with that

i do not need to "max" everything out per say

but i would like it to look good and play well

and im really not willing to spend the extra 300 for that lol
 
Oh, well you put your budget at $800, so I spent it all. I could have made it much less.

Swap the motherboard for this: $75

The RAM out for this: $75

The PSU for this: $30
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817153052

Saves $145, just as fast, but the components aren't top of the line.

Also, if you want, the 9800GTX+ isn't that much slower than the 4870, but is only $170:

That would save another $85 to make it $230 cheaper.
