Ok so i have about 2-3 weeks to figure out this build. The price is around where i'd like it to be, although I could always go lower. Any suggestions or opinions would be appreciated.
I already have an optical drive, Corsair 650tx, Coolermaster HAF 932, and a TRUE120(i need to buy the 1156/1155 mounting kit). I would like suggestions for some decent 2.1 speakers. I know speaker quality is somewhat subjective, but i haven't a clue what is what when it comes to them. I don't need top of the line, but i don't want crap either.
Intel i5 2500k 229.99
ASUS P67 Sabertooth 219.99
G.Skill Ripjaw X 2x2GB DDR3 1600 CL9 1.5v
XFX HD6870 1GB 229.99
WD Caviar Black 7200RPM 640GB 64MB cache 69.99
Samsung BX2231 21.5" 179.99
Logitech MK200 wired Keyboard and Mouse 24.99
2x Silverstone FM121 120mm Fans 33.98
Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit 1-pack for System builders OEM 99.99
Total price of these parts is just about $1,140. I figure when its getting down to the actual day of purchase i will hunt down a couple combo deals which should bring the price pretty close to $1,000. (Post title says $1200 figuring in the case and psu costs.)
What do you think? I do have future thoughts of adding a SSD but i'm just trying to get the rig up and running at this point.
