Hey guys,
Just looking for a little feedback on a system I am thinking of building. I would really like to keep the budget as close to $700 pretax and shipping as possible. I just bought a new mouse, keyboard and monitor so this will involve the PC only.
CPU
AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition Deneb 3.4GHz
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103727
$134.99
I'm thinking of possibly jumping over the $700 mark just a tad to get a hexa core 3.2 Ghz version for $45 more than the one I listed.

I'm getting a brand new one from a friend for about $50. He bought one then didn't use it.

Total Price: $609.95
Also I'll be getting Windows 7 64 bit so that will round it out to just over $700. What do you guys think. Any suggestions or is this ready to go?
Edit: Sorry final price with Windows 7 is just over $700. Not sure why I typed "under $700".
