I built this computer on ncix.com now im not promoting or anything this is just my source for the pricing.

This is in my personal opinion the best computer for the money, I wouldve gone for a better monitor but I built this with best performance for best price no sacrifice to performance or quality but not going over board eaither.

the physics engine will only be useful in compatible games, for something that is not gonna do its functions 100% of the time (game dependent) that's a waste of cash. Drop it and get the price closer to 3000 flat, it makes zero impact on games that don't need it.

Not bad, not sure what the exchange rate is, but just for comparison, here's the system I put together a few weeks ago. The prices (US) have changed since then (I actually paid $20 less for the video card), but they are close.

This thing has been rockin' since I put it together!!! Awesome system so far with 0 probs. And I completely don't know what the Vista haters are complaining about, it's been great for me and has run every game I've thrown at it :D

NCIX has better prices if you check their specials page instead of just searching for parts, and they will price match any posted price on the same part.  (I got a Canon S3-IS camera price matched to $300)  Also, for buyers outside of BC, you don`t have to pay PST.  You have to be careful with Digerdirect... after you add tax on the pre-rebate price and shipping, some of their great deals are not so good.
