Intel core i5-4670k
Ibuypower 16gb kit ddr3 sdram
2tb 7200 rpm
Nvidia geforce gtx650
24x DVD
Windows 7 pro
With all this it would cost around $955. Is this a good deal or is there better? My budget is around 1000

If you want you can drop the GPU down to a 280x and keep the price below $1000 though an SSD would also be a good investment too at this price.
