Went for the 560Ti as its same performance but youre getting a couple of the latest games with it, if you really prefer AMD you can swap back, as I say theyre on a par performance wise
Even though the i3 is only dual core, its still quite a bit ahead of AMD, as I say theyre not very good ATM
Only included a 500gig HDD as the prices are steep ATM
Much better PSU and case
Even though RAMs really cheap went for 4 gig as its sufficient and keeps you in budget
