Well, lets say it like this, i've done my homework.

But do YOU guys think it's a good setup?

i would buy something like a Intel Core i7 3.4 GHz Processor in think the rest is pretty decent maybe a diffrent graph card but u should be able play games fine

That would totaly override my budget, also, i'd choose i5 for gaming, i7 for extracting Pr0nz

Eh, not a fan of the i7's. They're decent, but I prefer the Phenom II X4 965 OC'd. I was able to get mine to 4500 MHz, but other people made it to 4600.

LoL i'd just buy the best thing out there now personally cause that would save me from building a new one in the near future... i'd rather "save" some more money and wait a bit longer but i guess thats me. U'll be fine with this setup anyway

and why a 955? you could just get a 965 or a 970 with what, 20 bucks more?
Also your going to need more hdd than that mine is 1tb and its full :c

No, 600 > 500.

Why a 955 you say? Cause of my budget.
When it come's to the HDD, I always keep it Tidy, and i don't download that much, i got my external 2tb for that.
