Hi Guys,

Just wondering if you could help me out in building a gaming computer on a low budget.
I want to shop on either NCIX or NewEgg using their deals to try to get a $600-700 beast.

Here's their deal page: http://www.ncix.ca/promo/promo.....letide2012

Here's what I need:
Case
Power Supply
Motherboard
CPU Processor
RAM
Video Card
DVD Writer
Hard Drive

Case: Coolermaster Haf 912 (I know I want this case or something comparable to it for quality and price)
Video Card: MSI Radeon 6670 http://www.ncix.ca/products/?s.....omoid=1306 Seems like a good card for the money!

THANKS!

Try www.pcpartpicker.com it tells you if your selected parts fits and where they can be bought for the lowest price :)

I, and at least one other person here, have found that PCPartpicker is not reliable for telling one if parts are compatible or not. I've found not all the vendors it lists are reliable, either (such as Adorama Camera).
