I plan on building this pc around thanksgiving. Here is my planned list. I explain why I chosen these parts, and then upgrades. Before I do that, here is what I already have. I have both ssd and hard drive. I also have a poo 630 which I will change out to a 7850 around January. Also 4x1 gb kingston ram clocked at 1066 mhz. I will be getting better, 8gb ram for Christmas. I also have a coolermaster psu, which I hope to get enough money for that before I build it. Any good psu in sub $50? I also I needed win 7 for awhile, but about a week ago, amazon had win 7 oem for $68, and I picked that up, so I have OS. I also have all monior, keyboard, mouse etc. Now here is wat I plan on getting

Reasons why I picked:
CPU: Is there even a better cpu at this price range? I doubt it, so thats why I'm getting it
Mobo: Has everything I need and nothing more. Even better, only 70 bucks :3
Case: I'm going on and off between this and zalman z12, so if someone could tell me which is better, that would be very appreciated
Now my plan upgrades/add ons
Case fans: If I get the 210 window, it only has 1 rear fan, so I would replace the rear and 2 top fans to white led fans, cause white looks amazing
Memory: I'm not sure wat my mom is getting me for Christmas, either Corsair or Kingston, which are both decent companies. I even have Kingstons' ssd!
Video Card: A 7850 for sure, not sure what kind though. MSIs Twin frozer looks NIIICE.
Thats my planned build. If you have any adjustments or anything, feel free to leave them below.
