Could you suggest a video card and motherboard/processor bundle and RAM for a gaming computer i want to build?

links would be nice.

try to keep prices low if possible.

lookin for at least 3 ghz

512 meg video card

at least 3gb ram

i already have case, power source, hdd, sound card, OS, and optical drive

thanks|||CPU: Phenom II X2 550 Black Edition



Mobo: Find a mobo that has 790GX chipset and SB750 south bridge because it has the best integrated graphic card out there. But make sure the mobo supports the cpu.



GPU(optional): Since 790GX already has a decent graphics you don't need it. If you want dedicated graphixs find ATI Radeon HD 5750. If you really want 512meg memory look for HD4850 or 5870 but 5750 or 5770 is the future



PSU: I strongly advise changing your PSU. It is the only part of the PC that you just can't cheap out on. Unless you want a broken PC. Use this as a guide

Check out newegg.com for prices.|||Buy a voltmeter, maplins sell cheap digital readout ones for about 10 quid and an anti-static strap. Some thermal grease for the CPU as well. The last thing you want is a short on your motherboard to the case, that's why the voltmeter is a saviour. I don't know exactly what you need or want. My rig is down to my own personal budget and experience of building rigs over 20 years. Its a natural progression, whats your motherboard and socket? Right away i can tell you if your PSU (power supply) is under 600 watts you'll not boot up on a 3 g/hz|||Intel Core 2 Duo E7600 (3.06GHz)
