Well, I was searching and i found this PC that is cheap and people say this it is very powerful. It's the "Gamer Infinity SLI GT"
here's the link: http://www.cyberpowerpc.com/system/Gamer_Infinity_SLI_GT/#

I modded it so it is affordable and it still has great prominence. This is what I chose.

Tell me if I I 'made' a good computer. Also, is it cheaper it buy the parts individual and just install them on my computer or but the new one?
 
I'd say it needs more RAM. 2GB, at least.

Why? Just get the 8800 GT on it's own.
 
Is it OK now?

@Diablo1123: 420 watts is the highest on there.
 
Reconsider your power supply there. You'll need 500w to run all that. Go somewhere else to shop if they can't supply you with a more powerful one.
