Giving myself a $200/part budget, tell me what you think:

Ram: G.Skill Ripjaws 8gb DDR3-1600 $109.99

GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD5770 1gb $129.99

Fixed the links to what mnewsham recommended.
I also have a good PSU (Seasonic II 500w) and everything else I need.
Total is about $650 shipped.
Thanks!
Edit: I'll be using this system for general use, video transcoding and gaming at 1680x1050 resolution. I figure it should be more than adequate for all that.
Edit: I put in the wrong CPU - I thought the i5-650 was a quad.
Edit: Wow I fail. Cpu and motherboard completely incompatible (dammit intel, enough with the 50 million different sockets!)
