CPU - Intel Core i5 2400 Processor LGA1155 3.1GHz - $229 MOBO - Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3P P67 Socket 1155 - $197 RAM - Corsair CMX4GX3M2A1600C9 4GB (2x XMS3 2GB) PC-12800 - $58 PSU - Corsair TX-650 650W ATX Power - $114 GPU - Sapphire HD6870 1G GDDR5 PCIE HDMI DP - $265 HDD - Samsung 1TB Spinpoint F3 SATA II 7200RPM 32M*- $57 OS - Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM- $105 CASE - Antec Three Hundred Tower Gaming Case- Black NO PSU*- $55 This comes to a total of = $1080 I don't plan to overclock this computer. Is there any suggestions that could improve this build? Current / Only wanted site used: [url]http://www.umart.com.au/newindex2.phtml?bid=2[/url]
-Since you're not overclocking get a cheaper H67 motherboard -Get a modular PSU, xfx and the higher end antec models are good choices -Either get the updated antec 300 (the 100), a CM HAF 912 or a CM 690 II

Go with P67, it'll allow you to have the option to OC if you choose so, and better performance.
