Gpu:4850 or 4870

Case: Antec 900? It has blue lights

Not to sound like a jerk, (And I know I asked for help) but did you even read my post? I have a $300 budget. With one of the intel's proc you suggested and a 4850 I am already over budget... And I said I didn't need a gpu right now.

I don't think this is the best setup, but it gets you started. I don't know much about the processor so maybe someone else will help you with that. Also do you need an OS? If you do I would suggest Vista 64 bit Home Premium OEM.

Umm, yeah I did. I really loved how it was very clear with an informative title.

I just suggested a graphic card. I never said it would be less than 300$.

Did you even read my post?

Sorry I tried to help.
