Hello, i'm looking at upgrading my PC and i've put together a list of things I think seem good enough for me and was wondering if they will all work together, anything else added, or if there is a better deal for me.

TOTAL: $471.17 CND including shipping
My budget will be around $500-600 CND, however the cheaper the better but I would not like to sacrifice performance for money.
Are these all the things I need to have a decent gaming computer?
That's certainly fine. Usually I would suggest a 955 BE, but with that combo it really doesn't matter.

No to the build being fine, or no to him suggesting a 955 BE?

wow your sales tax really sucks; it's within budget but I'll try and get it lower.

apparently GST/HST is BC only?? you're not in BC so it'd probably be lower.

It's $507 shipped to Canada, if you want it lower and don't overclock you could get a 2500 and an H67 motherboard instead, if so: tell me.
Yeah this looks great, would you consider this a good gaming computer?
Very good. Should be able to max just about anything other than like Metro 2033 in DX11 mode.
Awesome, so I am most likely ordering this tonight then, thanks for the help Shadez!

and the 600w PSU will be good for all this?
