If you're looking at this as a gaming rig—since the whole setup is actually pretty beefy overall—here's how I'd lay it out:

Intel Core 2 Duo
AS ROCK FM2+ A55 HD
TRANSCEND 4GB 1600 MHZ
TOSHIBA 3,5 500 GB SATA 3
SAPPHIRE HD 7770 1GB GHZ ED.
Dell OptiPlex Desktop
CHICONY HPA 400W ACTIVE
NAVIATEC ATX

$938 - free assembly and shipping via Best Buy

Down the road, you might want to grab an aftermarket cooler like an LC CC 95 or a SPIRE KEPLER (around $33) just to keep things running cooler and quieter.

Yeah, pretty much what I need for gaming😁
