What was the budget, and I am sure the latest intel chips will be more cost efficient.

800 with monitor mice and keyboard. Alright

Shit thats only 600 bucks, not bad though

I think thats the best you can do with your budget, except for the HDD, you should be able to get a 1tb drive, either 7200.11 or a Caviar black
You dont need an 90 dollar case, you can get a few cheaper ones, the Haf 912 or the betfenix shinobi.

Are you planning on OC it? If so I will make sure the PSU has some of the best ripple suppression out there :D

that case isn't changing. no need for 1tb. not oc'ing

i know i could get cheaper cases. i also know i don't need a 21.5 inch screen. however, they're not going to be changed
