So, can you guys help me build a super crazy mini itx PC in the $1600's?
Including a monitor.

I think this build will do nicely.

Its pretty much just a gaming rig, so dont expect amazing video editing performance from it. The monitor is a professional grade IPS panel so your going to get good colour accuracy from it (I have it myself and its pretty good). You can upgrade the RAM to get 16GB later on if you wanted.
