Broadway Com Corp R-910 Black thick Steel ATX Full Tower
XFX Radeon HD 5770 XTreme Edition 1GB
OCZ Z-Series 650W power supply
Kingston ValueRAM 4GB
EVGA Intel P55 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Intel Core i5 2.66GHz 95W Quad-Core Processor
what you guys think?
And for building pleasure, maybe consider getting an A-Brand case. More expensive, but better build quality so you will not slice up your fingers.
Only i5 you want is the 750.

hows that?
protip: better to get a good non-modular rather than a shitty modular. since badly made ones don't really take resistance into account and you don't get stable or required voltages and amps...
Would recommend; www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341016&cm_re=ocz_modular-_-17-341-016-_-Produc
t
500w should be plenty unless you plan on crossfiring.
EDIT: www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341019&cm_r
e=OCZ_power_supply-_-17-341-019-_-Product think i might go with this

Get the Antec Gaming 300 tbh, saves money and probably just as good.
was thinking MAYBE www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811103026&cm_r

Would recommend that. Have the cm690 and there's plenty of room for my 4890, and if I wanted to add another. So a 5770 will fit no worries.
