I see is the video card i chose an okay card or can i get a better one for a bit cheaper or will that one do with the stuff you recommend its about 703 which i think is manageable but hey any more ideas im here to listen.
 
The 6770 and 5770 are great cards and ive heard they overclock like monsters. Otherwise all looks good.
 
I see guess ill wait a bit longer before i decide what im going to do and if these are the right parts, also are these parts all compatible just asking because itd suck if i did buy them and found out one didn't work with the mother board i have or something.
 
Yes they are, but did you change it like I said, again I would change to a gigabyte am3+ one so it's a little future proof for now.
 
Yea i edited is the mobo i picked good enough? Also this should be able to handle mmos pretty good i guess but what would be the most graphic intensive game i should be able to run smoothly on this set up?
 
Looks goOd and that can get high or better settings on almost every game out at 1080p, I think it gets medium to high on battlefield 3

You do know that you have a notebook harddrive?

Change the power supply to one of these. Saves you a few bucks out of the pocket.

or

With the extra, get the Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3. It has a 8+2 power phase setup. plus free shipping.

Spend 3 bucks more for this memory. Better memory with the same timing and lower voltage.

Better video card.

They aren't and they don't. They are both the same chip and have the power of a 4870 with less power draw. That's it. They are however more powerful than a GTS 450.

I also replied to your other thread asking the same question:

You'll be better off doing it yourself and with that budget you can get a good tower that can handle most of the latest games and MMO's with ease. But do you also need a new screen, copy of windows, peripherals, etc, or do you have those already? Regardless, here's a $700 tower to get you started:

Well i updated choosing from what you guys gave me though its kinda a bit over budget is the mobo that much better then the one i had before? are their any changed i can make that reduce the price but keep nearly the same bang for the buck?
 
That took a good 30 dollars off thanks.
Also am i good to go would i be able to start buying these parts now or is their more i can edit?
Also what tools do i need for building the computer?

I think ill stay with the harddrive i have there well am i basically done because i may start buying the parts soon and i want some one to confirm that im ready to go also what type of equipment will i need i saw a youtube vid of newegg making a computer and all they needed was a small screwdriver.
 
Everything looks good. A philips screwdriver. Before you start touch the case to discharge yourself, and keep doing it occasionally while your building it.
