For gaming you want a much better GPU than a 5750. Aim for a 5770 at least, preferably 5850 if you can afford it.
That motherboard won't work with an i5. i5 is socket 1156, that board is socket 775.
Better power supply (doesn't come with power cord, see below): [url]http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817371030&cm_re=antec_power_supply-_-17-371-030-_-Product[/url]

Wrong processor for the mobo.
Also, i5 650 is a bad value
that 5750 is overpriced.
horribly outdated overpriced IDE harddrive.
Use integrated network
For 900 canadian, you can probaby go i5 750 + 5770
For harddrive, try something like this

i just want to play games like CSS and etc.
[editline]02:01PM[/editline]
so what type of prossesor
Go with an i5-750, a 5770, grab a sata HDD (don't shortchange yourself here, you're getting a better GB/$ ratio with bigger harddrives anyways), and up that ram to DDR3 1600. Otherwise looks good.
i knew i didnt need a third adapter ill take it out
Only CSS 'etc'? Then you don't need an i5 or 5770 and you can just get a 4850 and Athlon II build for about half the price.

[editline]02:08PM[/editline]
no i wana play MW2 and BBC2
Cheapest there is: [url]http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820211364[/url]
Same specs. A-Data are good.
For BC2 you want at least a 5770, preferably a 5850 if you play at high resolution with AA. What monitor do you have?
so basically what do i need all together since i changed and removed items

running integrated is fine for your budget
Also, you need a motherboard
i think im missing a mobo
[editline]02:17PM[/editline]

As you know, units are not all created equal, so do you actually have hard evidence that this particular unit is bad even though it has better specs than the OCZ you posted and is also cheaper, or are you just making a big fat (possibly biased) assumption?
From what I can see the OEM for the Neo is Seasonic, who certainly don't suck.
thanks alot guys i guess thats all i need
FHamster you are a great help!
ferrus thanks alot!
What's your final list?

Neos cost as much or more expensive than the OCZ
the cheaper basiqs suck
Then your comment is irrelevant as this is a Neo. As for the price, the Neo is 65, the OCZ is 70, but the Neo is better.
any way to get a cheaper prossesor?
