component pricing ratios

[badninja3]

first of all, sorry for the weird title.

ok, in a $800-$900 pc, who much should a person spend on each component?

and, what is/shouldbe the most expensive component in a pc? ...what is the most important part. like is there a certain order? like, vid.card, then cpu, then psu, then... etc.

thanks

if your in it for gaming then IMO processor spend the most on then ram then graphics card, then sound, then hd. processor makes it run fast ram for consistency and graphics obviously for quality.

well, ima be using it for mostly daily tasks/multitasking... AIM, outlook, itunes, limewire, firefox, bittorrent, word processor. but also for some light/moderate gaming w/ some pretty good games.
