I would like suggestions on my build! (AMD Thuban/ Radeon hd 5850)

Please let me know of any improvements I could make on my build and stay under 1100 usd! It is to be used as a ADOBE CS4 master suite computer and gaming.

Hard drive:

Video Card:

Power supply:

Blue Ray player:

Processor/ram:

Any help or explanation is appreciated although I feel pretty confident in this setup so far. I already have a case and all the peripherals.

Maybe go for the higher clocked 6 core? Can't remember the name though, 1090T or something. I think it would be worth saving for it.

I would love that but that would put me out of my price range.

both the X6 chips are easy to overclock, so reaching the 1090T clocks shudnt be a problem.

obviously you loose out on the black edition goodness.

The 1090T is $100 more. I'm sure you can get the same performance as the 1090T no problem as all the specs are identical. Save your money and get the 1055T.

Looks like a decent set-up man.

if youre going for the 1055, and want a cheaper board (to have more money for other things) look at the one I got (Gigabyte 790x USB3), dunno how it fairs against higher end boards but I'm very satisfied with it.
