That's why I said he could swap it out for a 7850. And I have a 7750 and it eh, works. So whatever :P I also have a gtx 460 which is about a 7770 and I can play gta v 1366x768 at mixed settings. But op wants 1080p.

@OASTERS-CLAMS-AND-COCKLESTry to find a 7870 or 7950 in your price range. So about 175 CAD max for the gpu.

gotcha, thanks!

No problem, if you get the other parts plus a 7950 you'll be getting extremely good performance for your dollar. Also, with that board you might be able to get a (very very very small) overclock on your cpu. Actually, if you have a few extra bucks I could get you a better board with more overclocking potential. You want to go for that?

Athlon X4 845 (NCIX) 80 CAD

ASRock FM2A58M-VG3+ R2.0 AMD FM2+ (NCIX) 60 CAD+15 CAD mail in rebate

Corsair Vengeance CMZ8GX3M1A1600C10 8GB 1X8GB DDR3-1600 (NCIX) 43 CAD

EVGA 430w 80 plus power supply (AmazonCA) 35 CAD

Antec VSK-3000E Case (NCIX) 42 CAD

Total 392 CAD without shipping and mail in rebates.

If you've got an extra 50 bucks you can get something like a 7850 which will be a lot better than the 7770. But, for 400 CAD I think this is a pretty good build.
