I know this topic covers an entire computer config, but i wasn't sure where to put it...
You doubted, You didn't think it was possible, BUT IT IS!
After much research and headaches from staring at the screen, I have created the recipe for a great rig UNDER 500$ to play DX10 games...
(Note this is the rig, not the monitor or software...)
CPU/ Mobo Combo: XFX Nvidia nForce 680i
Intel Pentium D 925 3.0 GHz - (159.99 for Combo)

Hard Drive: Maxtor 6L200M0 200GB SATA - 50.99

Memory: OCZ SLI-Ready Edition Dual Channel 2048MB - 49.99

Video Card: XFX GeForce 8600 GT / 256MB DDR3 – 99.99
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item- details.asp?EdpNo=3048551&CatId=1560
Optical Drive: Black Lite-On CD-RW 16X DVD Combo Drive - 22.99

Case w/ PSU: Black Tricod 8068 ATX Mid Tower w/ 450W PSU -38.00

Other Thoughts: CPU Could be Uprgraded, Rather Cheap Optical Drive, Integrated Sound - Still, Could Work Great with Later Upgrading but great to start with
