Seems pretty cheap to me. Of course you could select the cheaper options on the different areas

Well, I defiantly think you should go with the AMD Phenom II 965 BE CPU. Check out the GTX 460's, they come in 3 different memory types and provide excellent bang for your buck . Average around $250AUD if you can translate the currency.

Make sure you know what your doing before you buy parts. Check your socket, motherboard power connector pins, ram pins, ram standard, and all that type of stuff.
And of you get an amd processor remember that the amount of ram cards in hou computer has to be even, so you wont be able to use 3x2 6gb ram.
