Hey, this is my first build and after reading alot of threads, i came up with this build.
the computer is going to be mainly for gaming (warrock mainly), but i need to be able to do computer coding and other stuff on it. Mulit tasking would be very helpful for this.

my price cut off is trying to be $600, it can be at $650 though.

if there is anyway to make this cheaper and still good (or better) please say so.

AMD setup

CPU - AMD Athlon 64 X2 5400+ Brisbane 2.8GHz Socket AM2 65W Dual-Core black edition Processor Model ADO5400DSWOF - Retail

Mobo - GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H if you are not crossfire

Video Card - Go for Cheaper and better ATI HD4850

RAM - $70 for 4GB, too expensive!! Go for 2 x 2GB, and you'll able to upgrade in future.

Go for a cheaper 500W PSU if you are not CF. For 700W, OCZ GameXStream would be better.

However, I suggest E5200 + MSI P43 Neo3-F instead of AMD
