if it's for gaming, you might want to look into AMD's fx series, and I think that graphics card is for CAD, so I'd look at a 7800gtx or x1900xt

Because the fact that the PEE is way overpriced for it's performance, and the AMD X2 4800+ would be a much better choice for performance/price.

And that video card is probably around $1000, when it will not work well for gaming.

ya it is, if you reawd reviews on those cards they say that they are not meant for gaming, and there really bad at it.

I think he just joined here to make himself look extremely rich, by saying that this will be a computer just for gaming.

could be considering he sounds like an idiot saying he has picked up those parts when windows vista is one of those parts.

I agree with the fact he's an idiot - regardless of whether or not he is wanting to make himself look rich.
