HD2
HITACHI Deskstar 7K1000.C 1TB 3.5" SATA 3.0Gb/s Internal Hard Drive -Bare Drive
Power Supply
Rosewill BRONZE Series RBR1000-M 1000W "Compatible with Core i7, i5" Power Supply
CD Drive (Meh, this doesn't matter as much)
ASUS CD/DVD Burner Black E-IDE/PATA Model DRW-22B2S/BLK/B/AS (Bulk)
Case
COOLER MASTER HAF 932 RC-932-KKN1-GP Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window
Motherboard
