This isn't for a permanent build as in I'll probably be replacing the parts as soon as the money comes around if it's not performing well enough. This is basically just to fit it into the range of my paycheck, because I'm lazy and don't want to wait for two paydays to roll by. Tell me what you think and give me suggestions on any better parts for the same or lower price, I don't want to go above the price I already have, as it is it's probably too high and I don't have much wiggle room.
When are you buying this? [editline]01:48AM[/editline] Also where's the CPU?
Next friday probably.
Ohgawd, Logisys PSU. Not sure about case's brand. A 4850 is equivalently more powerful than the CPU, thus the CPU is bottlenecking the GPU. Get 2 X 1 GB, might be cheaper.

That case looks pretty awesome.

Though better CPU, more reliable PSU brand, and double the RAM.

[QUOTE=Dantai;16115315]Don't you need a heatsink for the CPU..[/QUOTE] It comes with one.

The extra $50ish dollars will be worth it.
[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;16113431]No, it's fine.[/QUOTE] No, I do believe that some parts of it need to be changed.
I was talking about the 3rd statement.
[QUOTE=Yumyumbublegum;16130661]I was talking about the 3rd statement.[/QUOTE] Oh that. I'm probably wrong on that, I'm not too good at finding bottlenecks.
