found this on NewEgg... I imagine I would need a graphics card for it. Can someone recommend one?

For the money, how does this build rate? Can I do better if I want to do some gaming?

Thanks

If you want gaming, go with intel, no contest, I suggest the i5 2500k

Old board with a 880 chipset, plus the Antec 900 kinda sucks compared to newer cases.

Yeah it seems like they bundled old tech with new. Sata II drive, slow unnecessarily large drive. You could do better choosing each part.

better deals and only for the mobo and cpu, i'd prob go for the 960t and ASUS M5A97 or the Gigabyte UD3
