Ordered Already
$40.45- HDD Samsung SpinPoint F3 HD502HJ 500GB- ORDERED FROM EWIZ
Ram
$93.99 Adata 2x2gb DDR3
Motherboard
$89.99 GIGABYTE GA-770TA-UD3 Amazon
Monitor
$124.99 Acer X203Hbd newegg
Case
$29.99 NZXT Gamma Amazon
GPU
$109.99 XFX HD4850 1gb Amazon
DVD/PSU Combo
$64.97 Lite-On DVD-RW+Corsair VX400 PSU
CPU
$99.00 AMD X4 635
Gaming will primarily be Half Life 2+expansions, TF2, UT2004, flash games. I would also like to stick to XFX, all PC failures I've had in the past were due to dead NVIDIA cards so I want one with a lifetime warranty this time. Any critiques, comments, or improvements can be made? I was thinking in exchange for overclocking I could use my old Lian Li case, get the $10 cheaper ram that doesn't have heat spreaders, get a cheaper motherboard, and possibly buy a more expensive Phenom II X4 or a better monitor. My only problem is the power supply bracket for the Lian Li case is missing.
