Not sure what an Ultra 500w PSU is nor am I certain what ultra 512Mb memory is, but I'd bet you could do better for $3120.

I have that PSU, but it came broken. The parts are amazing btw. Great gamer setup.

I've no problem with several of those parts. I wouldn't choose an FX-53, nor would I choose the Asus SLI board, but they're not horrendous choices either. I believe it would be possible to build a comparable system for less though.

$3200 Cad = $2563.20 Usd

Fyi

[TimoneX]

Ah busted by that CAD thingy again.

I always forget there's currency other than USD in the world.

i dont know a whole lot, but would'nt he save a lot building himself?

edit, i missed the 2 vid cards

[TimoneX]

Probably not much saving as the price isn't so bad(after conversion), but you could certainly get pretty close to that price and have some higher quality components at a few points.
