I don't have much money atm. and I don't need a super computer, just one that runs current games smoothly which is what this should do. |

put an extra 150 and get a nice 560 ti card. Then when you more money get another 560 ti card.

You can save a fair bit of money on the motherboard and ram, I would also recommend against the Coolermaster Extreme Plus power supply's, they don't have the best track record. If your looking to save more money you can acquire windows 7 through alternative means, I won't discuss here. Also can save money on the case but thats personal preference.
Here's a sample build with prices from MSY if you have one near you, managed to include a ATI 6870, which is inbetween a GTX 560 and GTX 560 TI in terms of performance.
Intel Core i5-2500 $331.00
ASRock H61M-VS B3 $50.00
Transcend 8GB Kit (4Gx2) DDR3 1333 $36.00
Seagate 3.5" Barracuda 1TB $110.00
LG SATA Black DVD RW $19.00
Powercolor 1GB 6870 $169.00
Antec 300 Gaming Tower $59.00
Antec Neo Eco 520C 520W (BYO power cord) $67.00
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM $96.00
Total: $827.00
EDIT: give Bohica a PM as well mate.

Cheers karnage but I'd have to say Bohica's our man here, he owns a PC shop  I'm just giving a general idea of what to get. Also probably would've worked out cheaper going through Bohica for you karnage? Didn't you manage to wreck a CPU by inserting it the wrong way? Ah funny memories. |

yes  A shame that the newer members cant become experts in PC building after following what I DIDN'T do since I cant find the thread through searches. Nothing against bohica, but I wanted to buy my parts at the shop with cash, just easier for me I guess. Well, easier to go back and buy a new part... |

If I were you KARNAGE (and I'm not and never will be, thankfully ) I'd go the Bohica route... at least you know when the machine shows up it's gonna work... and may or may not explode (depending entirely upon whether Chalice intercepts it en-route and stuff its it full of explosives).. Shit, I can even build a PC and I'm gonna use Bohica's services (several of them, the least of which is his technical expertise, the most of which involves him, high heels and red lipstick) when I purchase my next new PC... |

Can't comment on reliability as mine didn't fail, sold a few weeks ago, but I had a Coolermaster RS-650-PCAR-E3 PSU and it was VERY noisy. |
