I was aiming for around $800-900. But with tax and shipping this is gonna suck :(
I'm pretty sure everything is compatible :) Any suggestions... I'm not an OCer.. Any ways to make it quieter, cheaper, etc.? Will cooling be an issue? I would rather save than spend more though.
Total = $933. :confused:
If I need to go cheaper I could get a 3200+ .. or maybe go lighter on the PSU and case? What would you do?

pzerofgh and shorty helped me a lot.. OMFG THX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.. :eek:

i still like the gay curves and door ;) :laughing:

i thought you were ordering from monarch, guess not :confused:

1. I'm thinking of buying this PSU..
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103930

Its 480W, vs the original 550W I was going to buy. I could save money by getting the 480W. Do you think 550W is overkill for this system or should I still with it?

2. I have to choose between these 3 cases:
- Antec Performance I P160 ($110)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811129144
- COOLER MASTER CAVALIER 3 ($60)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811119075
- ASPIRE X-Plorer ($58)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811144104

I think I'll probably get the cooler master to save money
