This looks solid! I like this with the faster cpu(is it necessary tho? will I notice a difference?) and the SSD is sweet!

Looks great. As tom said 16 g isnt necessary but if you really want it it is nice to have. Also id look int getting some things used from trusted members here or on a similar forum. it will save you a lot of money and alow you to get significantly better stuff for the same price.

Also with the recent switch in the v300s i would stay away from them
