HookeyStreet, fuiop2000 needs that to be in CAD, If I remember correctly, 1000 pounds is about $2000 CAD (maybe more around in the low 1900's)

Look for a US Site and try to build a system for under $1200 USD (equivilant to $1500 CAD)

I just built the exact same PC on a US site and all I did to get it under $1500 was change the 7900GT to a 7800GT: Total $1410 but I suppose thats before TAX
