total $1,162.90

so what should I change if anything? I want to be able to max out or come darn close to it with BFBC2, COD:BO and other new shooting games

Right now EVGA has a brand new model GTX 460 Ultra clock (850 core clock, 1700 shader clock, 3900 mhz memory) out for only $199.99 free Just cause 2 and Mafia 2 game Something to consider there..

Also... If the rig in your sig what you game on now?

A sweet build, but you can get a AMD 6850 pretty cheap now adays, you might wanna look into it.

Well a FYi... a x6 phenom will not give you really any benefits in gaming.. If you do something that might actually take advantage of the extra cores then I would consider it, if not... no reason for it.. Might as well save on a phenom iix4... also, don't know your preference but Intel chips are hitting the market and give some significant performance.. AMD new chips are not coming to later this year and will require a new mobo (though that mobo will be fully backward compatable with older cpus)... Might wanna research all of that as well. 8 gb of ram is also not needed unless your gonna do something extremely ram intensive like video editing or photoshop.

You should be able to save close to 200 dollars off the rig going with a OC gtx 460 1gb for 199.99, a phenom iix4 955 or 965 for 140-150, and 4 gb of ram for 50 dollars.

{edit} let me put it in some some links.

Mobo - Asus mobo 89.99

CPU - Phenom iix4 3.2 ghz 144.99

Ram - Adatal 2x2gb Ram 47.99

Video Card - GTX 460 SSC+ with backplate Mafia II and just Cause II 199.99

Case - Rosewill Challenger Case 54.99

Power Supply Corsair 650 watt psu 89.99 (80.99 after coupon code Jansave10)

You might also wanna take a look at Asus Monitors as they offer some pretty good warranty plans from what I hear now. This is all just giving you same performance you have above for cheaper TC...
