Well, I added all of that up, and it came to $700 before rebates. I picked out parts that total about that much that are much better.

4 gigs of RAM is pretty unnecessary nowadays, unless you're using Vista and running memory hogging applications.

IMO that is a killer computer for the price. Don't forget, you'll also need an operating system.

You shouldn't forget things like new monitor, mouse, keyboard. Most people tend to leave this out of building a new system. If you haven't already got the monitor you want or the nice keyboard & mouse you're going to buy it eventually so you might as well get it with the new system. No point in getting a nice video card without a monitor to back it up.
