it all looks alright, everything should fit together. At first I thought it was in US dollars and was like what the heck, but figured that out. I might look into getting a better graphics card if you're going to be gaming much, the x700 is getting pretty dated. I might also just get an IDE dvd burner, they're a lot cheaper and work just as well
 
Well if he is planning on doin gaming then you should switch to an AMD processor and maybe upgade to a 6600gt if the budget it tight.

what is your total budget?
 
well i'm getting everything on there half off and plus the cpu later, it will come to about $ 850 CND, and i'm happy with that.

i won't be using it for gaming THAT much, maybe a little bit of gaming.
mostly just surfing, burning, movies.
