So Give Me Your Thoughts.. And also i will be getting a new Video Card.

How much is a Canadian dollar worth in EU or US $?

That's not a gaming system, but other than that I think it is reasonable as long as you do not have high multimedia demands. (Read 3D applications). I wouldn't count on crystal clear sound either with 'integrated' sound.using the current conversion rate of x 1.12 where 1.
one US dollar equals 1.12.... CAD

If you were so inclined, you could PROBABLY build that rig for about 1100.00 USIt's not a bad system, with better than average integrated graphics.
I'd recommend a good video card though, or the IGP will bottleneck the system, and it will be unsuitable for gaming.
Consider a Core 2 based system if you have the CASH, they're better than the Athlon X2 series.
Raptor: integrated sound cards are getting better, some of them offer passable sound now.
I still prefer my Audigy 2 though.
You may want to look into a dedicated sound card too.
