Just a thought...

I put this together quickly as on option for me to buy. Prices are in CANADIAN dollars, so it will be slightly higher, it is also no shipping charges. Please note I cannot buy from Newegg because they dont ship to Canada.

you need more video card in that setup. the 7600 seems kinda weak compared to everything else.

What would be the next step up from the 7600? The 7900? If so I cant afford that. What would be similar in ATI?

The next significant step up would be the 7900GT, which is about $230-$260.

But don't get him wrong the 7600gt is still a very nice card. I would go with a x1800gto. A few extra bucks but sure worth it. If I am right it is around $200 USD not for sure on Canadaian.
