So a bud of mine is trying to build a new PC and he chose the following parts.
I'm telling him to get some input on people who know what they are doing before he actually purchases any of the parts.

Budget ~800$
Processor:

Setup looks good. What is he going to use the computer for? If it involves gaming of any kind I would get a GTS 250 basically a 9800GTX+ and I have the 9800GTX+. Runs modern games like a boss. For $95 you can't beat it.

I feel comfortable calling any1 who buys a sound card with that gpu a moron, like really.

edit: build looks fine just need to drop that gpu/sound card and pick up a gtx 460 or 5850. I would also put a couple more bucks on a better case with better cooling.

Spoiler!
