    well for a start fella, getting hold of some DDR3 ram for a 'reasonable' price is going to be hard. It's still relatively new and there for sadly still expensive. Plus using DDR2 ram will also give you much more room with your budget
    For you mobo, do you know what type of CPU you wanna go with? You dont need an intel extreme to run games lol, i think alot of people would be out of money if that was the case.
    For design wise again you don't need to go as high as a 4850 or GTX 280, well according to my knowledge you dont.
    What i think would be best fella is to creat a list from an online shop and show us what you think would best and we can give you opinion. That way you can price up from the online shops in your area

    thanks for ur quick reply

    first i didn't mention that my brother will buy the pc for me from France , that's why i came here to ask for help .

    ok then , is Quad CPU is necessary for games ( Hardcore player ) .

    and it's ok with ddr2 .

    i need some offers for a whole PC to be computable together , cause i don't have a wide knowledge about PC world .

    so u can give an offer for a whole PC and other can discuss ur offer to get the best one for the best price .

    the main thing is i need the new PC to serve for a long time , so i can increase the price if it's necessary .

    ok then, what are you specs of your current pc.
    For example say you have a dual core 2.6 and you went and bought a quad core 1.8. The dual core is going to be better cos the graphics card will use the speed over the number of cores.
    DDR2 is perfectly fine

    I was gonna say use DDR2 as DDR3 isnt really need as of yet espically at a budget

    Have a look at nVidia 8800 cards i use a GTX OC2 and dan i think ur happy with ur GT aint ya?

    CPU hhhhmmmmmmmmmmmm Q6660 (Quad Core) or maybe a E6750 (Dual Core) depending on budget as not much price differences

    Not sure about a mobo not up to stratch
