Athlon II X3 435 2.9GHz @ 4k
Biostar TA785G3 HD @ 4.2k
2GB DDR3 1333MHZ RAM @ 2.5k
Sapphire HD5670 512MB GDDR5 @ 5.2k

FSP Saga II 400W @ 2k
CM Elite 310 @ 1.5k
BenQ 22" G2220 FULL HD LCD Monitor @ 7.5k

if you are an occasional gamer skip the graphic card and get Athlon II x4 630 @ 4.9k and another 2GB ram.....

your budget is low for intel and avoid asus as we have got to hear probs with asus mobos recently only....
