for the first one you'll need to get a better power supply since 420W probably won't cut it for a 9800 GTX
 
if it dont included the moniter the price is tomuch for both
i dont know about the stats but im from canada and i can get that for about 600 to 700 (for the 1199) and for the 655 one i can get that for 300 or 400 so you really being over priced i know cuz i work in a computer store so look around and make some deals and your better off making the pc from scritch thats what im doing and it saves m,e over a 150 dollers but thos or good prices if they come with the moniter iight


anyways if you have anymore computer qustions come to me

Canadian here as well, here are my favourite Canadian online stores. They all have good prices (should cross check with each store to be sure you find the lowest prices for the items you choose). extreme PC and canada computers are the ones that I use the most because the shipping is good (extreme PC uses Canada Post).

that's pretty much as high end as it gets for AMD unless you start adding optional components. To save yourself a bit of cash, you can go with one vid card now and get the second one later, the 4870 still destroys most vid cards and sli configurations by itself.
