Yea i need an os and also using ssd preferably for storage.. Is it possible?

H81M-DGS + G3220~ $143
Zotac 750TI~ $207
Crucial mx100 256gb ssd ~ $165
Crucial 8gb ~ $90
1TB WD blue ~ $71
Sharkoon MA 1000W~ $65
FSP HEXA 450W ~$59
Windows 7 64bit ~ $116
Total $906

Without SSD
H81M-DGS+4440~ $294
Zotac 750TI~ $207
Crucial 8gb ~ $90
1TB WD blue ~ $71
Windows 7 64bit ~ $116

psps this is the best i can do, cause SSD and OS itself already take up $281, thats why left with $619. If you want can get SSD next time and channel the budget to CPU

can... up to you see how much space you need lo... but 128gb really very limited, unless you are just playing ghost recon alone and seldom buy other games.

You can take any one of our build. That game not even hard to drive.

But take note. The gpu and cpu will run out of juice in future and other games. You might wanna reconsider your budget and think about it first.
