I have enough for the PC right now, and I'm going to start saving for the VC and PSU.
Do you think that this PC will be able to handle Diablo III efficiently?
I was also thinking about building my own PC but I have no experience in those fields I don't know how to build a PC, nor' do I have any idea of where to look for parts and/or what kind of parts to buy.
first of all we dont know the official specs, but yes that pc will most likey be able to run d3 fine, and since your in canada dont use newegg theres a better canadian site, and third building a machine is much cheaper
its pretty simple to build a pc, if you can get help, do, but if you cant, the parts usually give you instructions
i would tell you the website, but i cant remember it,:(
Well from NCIX.com I picked out these parts and can build it for $865.92 CDN. Or should I stick with the original plan but aim for a better VC?

The real question is, is it worth it?
do you need 2 hard drives?
i would get a better psu(power supply)
the gpu(video card) isnt the greatest, the 9800 or a 8800 would be better
a little bit better ram would be better some ddr2-800 would be better
the motherboard isnt the greatest, i would get one with sli. ill build a pc on that website, whats your price range?

i have this psu only 650w(they dont have that) and it works awsome, its also cheaper.
the heatsink for the cpu only get that if you want to overclock a lot, becuase the retail box of the q6600 comes with a heatsink and fan
also this is what the fan is for- AMD Socket AM2:
Sempron Processors
Athlon 64 Processors
Athlon 64 X2 Processors
Athlon 64 FX Processors AMD Socket 754:

And how much research do you think I would have to do before ordering ALL the parts and how to build the PC?

I also plan on upgrading my VC and PSU on this PC.
VC: BFG GeForce 9800 GTX
Could this PC handle the VC or what would I have to upgrade?
the asus or the one your building?
i would get a better psu(power supply)
the gpu(video card) isnt the greatest, the 9800 or a 8800 would be better
a little bit better ram would be better some ddr2-800 would be better

SORRY FOR THE DOUBLE POST!!
All I'd have to do is upgrade the PSU right?
My price range is like under 750
