Go to Microcenter, pick up the cheapest i5 7xx, then get an SLI/CFX ready board, like a GD80 or P55 SLI, then pick up any brand of HD 5770, any brand (except OCZ) 4GB, Samsung Spinpoint F3 (if they have it) or Western Digital or Seagate (make sure it's 7200.12, and NOT 7200.11) 1TB HDD, then an OCZ, Antec, SeaSonic, SilverStone, Corsair, or Cooler Master PSU that is around 600W (for crossfire).

This is what I put out:

Mobo: ASUS P7P55D LGA 1156 Intel P55 ATX Intel - 134.99
CPU: Intel Core i5 760 Processor - 169.99
GPU: ASUS EAH5830 - 209.99
Memory: G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB - 89.99
HDD: SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM - 74.99
PSU: CORSAIR CMPSU-650TX 650W - 89.99
Optical: LITE-ON Black 24X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW - 21.99
Case: Rosewill CHALLENGER Black Gaming ATX Mid Tower Computer Case - 49.99

Total after tax is 823.92
 

Just avoid the 5830. Why must it be a Radeon card? Nvidia's GTX 460 is the best choice for ~$200.

If you get an OCZ PSU, make sure it is only from either their "Z series" , or "ModXtreme" series. All the others are crap.

If you get a cooler master PSU, make sure it is from their "Silent pro" or "Silent Pro GOLD" series. Anything else that CM makes is NO BUENO
 
1a. 1500USD
1b. 42137
1c. Sweden
1d.

2a. Gaming
2b. Gaming, word processing, simple video editing
3. no
4. A computer that plays games (Dod:s, CoDMW2, L4D2 etc) with good FPS as well as fast surfing
4b. 0.5-1TB
5. Until the hardware becomes outdated
6. Antec P180

How much :- is that? (I have no idea what Swedish currency is :blushing: )

Yep.

The 5830 is the best card in the range for me. Plus it has Eyefinity and sports a higher memory interface than the 768MB 460.

:sleep: The 768MB version is like $170-180 now. You can pick up a 1GB version for $200. If you want 3 monitors, I recommend saving up for SLI 460s.
If you want Eyefinity, you're going to want more power than a measly 5830 can put out. But hey, it's your money, go ahead and spend it on what you want.
