    $500 Budget Gaming Build Advice

    Ok. I did find this XFX 6950 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150548 for $199.99 so I think I am going to go with that then drop the 8Gb of ram down to 4Gb. That puts me just under my budget. Plus I could pick up another 4Gb set in a few months if I feel I need it.

    @Danny - Its possible. Just need to get final authorization from the SO. @vict0r - I was thinking about the i3 but I really need to stay under $500 total. I would be willing to downgrade the GPU if the upgrade to the i3 is worth it. Thanks for the quick responses.
