So I have $300 saved up and i am thinking about earning $400 in the next 3 months. So I have $700 to spend. I have STarcraft and it looks like sh*it on my current PC. I have everything on low and it still has a hard time reaching 15 fps. Thankfully my laptop can run t on 40 fps on low. Anyways I want to be able to run it on ultra along with some other games like the witcher, Battlefield, crysis 2, etc.

Here are the parts I am thinking about purchasing-

So what do you guys think? This will be the first PC I will build but I saw some youtube vids and honestly it does not look too hard. Should I replace any part? Get a better graphics card or cpu? Thanks in advance.

 

UPDATE:

So far I am on track for making a PC by March. Anyways I am stuck between two options. I want to either buy the HD 5850 or 5770. I will be likely playing on a 22 inch screen most of the time and sometimes i will switch to a 32 inch screen. I wiould want to play on the highest resolution. Whcih card do you think will be better for me? Also I decided to hold off on the hard drive and just recyle my current hard drive to save $50.

The total is coming out to be $672.94.

 

I decided to not get a hard drive yet and I'll just recycle my current hard drive. So does anyone have any opinions about the parts I am going to buy? SHould I change anything? Is the power supply good enough? In the future I might want to buy another 6870 so will my motherboard support that? Thanks in advance?
