This is from cyberpowerpc.com and falls right into the dollar range I am looking at. I plan on using an existing HDD and power supply in addition to the components listed above. I also have an old SBL Platinum I can add in if the onboard audio doesn't do it for me. I'll be using this for gaming, mostly. Hell, who am I kidding, it'll be used for almost exclusively for gaming.

I know I might be able to find the individual components cheaper if I shop around some, but I just wanted to get an idea from the learned folks here at TFP on this rig's seaworthiness for the price. Thanks in advance.
