I do believe that you could save a bit of cash and get the same performance. For example, an AMD platform would be much cheaper and the performance difference is not worth mentioning for 19 out of 20 users. Also, you don't really need that motherboard if you are only putting PC6400 RAM into it... nor a SLI/Crossfire certified PSU with a motherboard that can't fit 2 GPUs in it....

what are you looking to use this PC for?

I'm looking for a Gaming PC for reasonable price. I don't really have any idea which MOBO to buy, I thought that one was a nice one but, as you said, I didn't choose the right ram for it and probably that my PSU is "too" good. May be you could help me choose another mobo and ram and PSU? I just want to buy something maybe a little cheaper but that will do the job for what I want... I'm looking to play Call of Duty 4 : Modern Warfare with max setting at a nice resolution probably 1440x900... Suggestion? Thanks a lot!

If your going crossfire then i would keep that psu. If not then i'd choose a cheaper psu to save money. The 4850 will play cod easily at your resolution.

Mobo: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16813131329
Asus is a great manufacturer, and that mobo has everything you need at a good price.

RAM: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16820227364
I have this exact RAM in my personal computer and I'll swear by OCZ RAM in general.

PSU: http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...82E16817341012
once again, everything you need at a great price.... for your system there 500 watt is enough, to really take advantage of the higher wattage you would need to upgrade other components anyways...

HD: buy Western Digital or Samsung, or Hitachi - whatever size you need at the lowest price...

Enjoy and Merry Christmas!
