9400gt for $100? Yeesh...

$60 for DVD drive is way too expensive.

A sound card is optional as integrated audio is usually fine.

See here for some good information: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=366177. Two good PC builds for $550 or $400.

Yeah, I was surprised that the GPU is so cheap for a powerful card. It's not top of the line, but it exceeds Crysis's recommended settings. It also has 1 GB of video memory.
