[Grinchy]

Title says it all.

Can anyone help with this build?

Don't you think he should go with a 4870? I mean that systems nice might as well add a nicer card :]

Also what are you aiming for? gaming machine? What games?

Stuff like that

GTX 260 + far cry 2 for $225 after MIR

EDIT: actually it will cost you $210 after you type the promo code

Sweet deal. For 210$ that card will smash the 4850 (unless you overclock like a MAD man).

and it comes with Far Cry 2!

There's also this:
