$820 Gaming PC, is this a good build?

[Nateku]

Hey, I'm most likely going to use the following build for a gaming rig that I'm going to put together with my friend. Budget is around $800 and I wanted as many people's opinions as possible, so I'm adding in a poll. If you don't like the build, it'd be lovely if you could state what you would change in a post. Thanks! ^_^

Only question is -
why you need a case come with PSU?
You can just get the case with a cheaper price...

[just a noob]

get a 4870, if you can swing it

 

[Kesava]

good build although if you are gaming then i would suggest you get the e8400 or something instead of the q6600 as it is better for that sort of thing

 

[Nateku]

Oh, the case, right.

I actually AM getting the case without the psu, I just posted the link to the wrong case. >_>

And thank you everyone for the feedback. The poll really helps.

 

[oscaryu1]

[Nateku]

Thank you all. ^_^ I'm really excited to finally get a good quality computer of my own.

Judging by the poll results, I think I can safely say I'm going to order this build within the next few days.
