LITEON SATA 24x DVD Writer $36.00

MNTR ASUS|LCD 23" 2MS VH236H RT $179.99

Donated case with processor fan

Memory card reader (had it)

64bit Windows7 (had it)

Discount($25.00)

DISCOUNT FOR AUTOADD #40606 ($49.99)

Subtotal:
$1240.92
Tax:
$0.00
Shipping and Handling:
$7.06
Total Amount:
$1251.98

I wanted something fast enough for occasional
video editing and went the extra mile for the
DirectX11.

I have call of duty 2 on it now, still need BF3 to test the
DirectX

Only thing that got left off was a solid state HD. Maybe later.

Got around to installing BattleField3. Runs smoother than Modern Warfare 2, as expected. Explosions are more realistic with Direct X11. The Radeon HD 6950 1 GB works well, and if I need to upgrade I can add another for crossfire. Hope this rig is relevent for two or three years.
