Here's what I got - $514 total before taxes. Best I could do for semi-gaming... otherwise you're compromising some performance.

There is a $20 MIR for the videocard, which brings it down to $494 before taxes.

Make sure to Price Match

Use pricebat.ca or shopbot.ca

AMD 7550 $49.99
http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product...AMD-_-19103628

Gigabyte GA-MA74GM-S2 $54.79
http://www.bestdirect.ca/products/17.../GA_MA74GM_S2/


Antec Sonata III $119
http://www.bestdirect.ca/products/11...ONATA_III_500/

Seagate 7200.12 500GB $54.99

Boom....saved $50 over NCIX "sale" pricing. Just order it online, pricematch, then pickup order. Now you're under $500.

They don't tend to pricematch in the store.
