on ncix i found a better deal. its amd though. its this processor with the asus mobo down below. its actually cheaper then the intel by a little bit. for a budget build amd is killing intel. theres ddr3 ram thats about 15 bucks more but overall i think this setup would be better than the intel one. i would recommend getting a 4870 if you get the amd

I would seriously consider a AMD system with a ATI card as they do seem to perform as well if not better than Navidia counterpart. I have tried several of the Navidia cards and have not been the least bit impressed with em, but that's my opinion. I just find ATI have a higher clock rate than the comparable Navidia card.
