i5 750 is what ive got runs at stock clock speed. on chris moreframes/ highest frames cant remember which is the worst one, but its that 1 i used :D with my £60 ati4850 i can easily see 300fps stable at 1920x1200 

dx9 frames never drops below 130fps run it capped now at 120

Remembering how old and shit my gfx card is and I can still get a decent 80fps stable with maxed out. I think that the i5 750 is a phenomenal choice :D

i cannot see why you would need to spend more than this for a TF2 gaming rig :P]]></description>

i5 - 4 cores

both are strong enough for tf2, but looking in future or even atm at games like GTA or BFBC2, you need 4 core cpu to have decent fps...]]></description>

Would cost me 470 eur
If i`d take 8gb ram and 5770 it would cost 570 eur
just with the 5770 it would cost 520 eur which i think i will take considering that i can just buy another set of 4gb ram later when I get some spare cash, right?</blockquote>

My i7 rig uses about 450 watts on full load. My G5 is sitting around 300 ish.

It all depends what you're planning to do with your pc, really. If you have 15 dvd drives and 30 graphics cards, that's when wattage begins to matter. A power supply's quality (ability to supply stable current) is the most important factor here (and, apparently, its weight http://www.directron.com/psu.html )]]></description>
