Building a new budget rig for mid level gaming HD movies

[Faytvii]

I have everything set up and ready to order. Been wondering if Everything I have thus far is 100% compatiable and an ideal system under 500$

I'm getting this bundle that includes an .

The case I'm getting for it will be a mid tower, the OS will be windows 7 pro 64 bit. As for a dvd burner I might just buy a used one locally. So is this a good set up? Will there e heat/bottleneck concerns?

And aside from 1080p movies. I plan to play games such as Dragon age 2, Black ops call of duty, gta IV , left 4 dead 2, WoW, Civ 5. With this build can I play at them at 1600, or 1900 resolution with mid to high settings?

If you need to cut down cost maybe get this:

Kawee's build there is solid, and will give you significantly better performance than the build you mentioned, while in the same price range.

I just ordered that 260, and I can understand the allure at the price point, but if you can spring the extra cash, the 6850 is significantly better. If you want to save some money, though, personally I would stick with the GTX 260 over the 6770, even though it is older.
