Well I finally have a little money to put into a new pc. I have $750 to spend and was wondering if you guys could help me decide on a few things.

All I need is a good processor,motherboard,video card,ram, and a powersupply.

This is what I have came up with

Processor/mobo combo - http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboD...t=Combo.190739

Power Supply - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817139006

RAM - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231166

Video Card - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130433

My total without shipping was 698.96... Does this system look alright or do I need some changes?

I would, personally, upgrade the graphics card to something with a bit more....um.... PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWER. Sorry, random rant....

Anywhoooo, here is what I would replace it with:

Otherwise, looks superb. I really like the fact people are finally seeing AMD as a viable, cost effective alternative to Intel.

I just bought that card last week....it runs my 2 23" 2048x1142 monitors flawlessly, with Runes of Magic cranked all the way up on one I get ~80 fps windowed mode. I have not tried it with only 1 active, but I can assume a constant 100+
Glad I upgraded to it last minute.

I really like your build, that is the exact same one that I priced out less than 2 weeks ago, the only difference would be that I went for the following memory (I have had great success with OCZ memory and rebates the last couple years and it's $20 cheaper... XD)
