I have the build I think I'm happy with. My only concern now (I hope, at least) is that I can't decide between two motherboards, and I hope you guys can recommend which of the two you would get, as well as any other thoughts on my final build. I definitely feel like the motherboard is the weakest part of my build, in terms of what I have done research-wise, and confidence in my choice. It might be a great part, but I'm not sure, and I don't know how to verify that.
All prices are in USD
CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition - $159.99
RAM: G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3-1333 - $99.99
Motherboard 1: ASUS M4A87TD EVO AM3 AMD 870 - $109.99
Motherboard 2: ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3 AM3 AMD 890GX - $139.99
GPU: XFX Radeon HD 5870 1GB - $379.99
HDD: SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 1TB - $79.99
PSU: Corsair 650w -$89.99
Case: Cooler Master HAF X - $199.99
DVD: Sony Optiarc Black 24X - $20.99
Monitor: Razer Arctosa (Silver) - $49.99
Mouse: Razer Spectre - $79.99
Total: $1460.89 or $1490.89
This budget is just about perfect for me, as it leaves me enough to pick up Windows 7 with my student discount.
Please, let me know if there are any changes you would make to the build! Otherwise I should be ordering it in the next few days.
