Changed My Mind

Well, I finally decided not to get another mointor so that saves me $200 but imma save that for later upgrades.

Sooo, for $800 (IF, I can get cheaper that would be FANTASTIC!!!) what could I get? (I dont mind dual-cores, just as long as they can overclock high and perform well) (btw, I live in Canada)

MY monitor is 19" and is at a resolution of 1280X1024, so my video card wont have to get THAT great.

I'll need.

CPU - CPU Cooler

Motherboard

Ram

Video Card

Power supply

Case

2.0 Speakers

And, Im not trying to make u do all the work so I'm going to post what I think I should get.

You could probably build a system around an i7 920 if you found some good deals.

That's about 450 right there. If you found a cheap motherboard and a case with a built in power supply you might be able to pull it off. But you'd probably want to upgrade that card sometime in the not-too-distant future.

not to sound mean guys but I'm in Canada :( pricing = overpriced

How about this?

Is that good??? I'm worried. I know the CPU will only get to like 3.0 GHz at MOST. But still I don't think I'll overclock from 2.5 GHz for a long time.
