    Out of curiousity, what is the 800w PSU brand/model?

    Also, moving this to the build/upgrade subforum.

    With the budget given, I'd probably go with an i3-4330 ($10 more) and a geforce 750ti. You'll get more mileage out of it.

    Derp, didn't see the 4330 when i was looking through the list. Also threw in the 750ti(dang new cards, still not used to looking for em).

    And knowing the brand of the PSU is going to be mighty useful to see if you need a replacement.
