Can you swing another rs 6000? For 36k, if you drop down to an i5 3330 and MSI H61M-P20 (G3), you can fit in a 2GB 7850. (that happens to be nicely factory overclocked)

Yeah, that would be ideal. If not, I'd drop the CPU down to the i3 3220 for 7201 in order to fit the 7850 2GB in there.

OP, a good rule of thumb for a gaming PC is that you should spend more on the GPU than on the CPU.

If you can stretch your budget a bit more, I would suggest adding an SSD as well. The difference will be fantastic.

Just make sure you fit in a 7850 with a core i5 and 8gigs ram. The rest doesn't matter as much.
