I would agree with Imsqam's build except the PSU, I would go with a 750-800watt PSU just to allows for head in the future. 650watt is limiting the upgradeability for the future, i.e more powerful GPU. However, for that money you're going to want a modular PSU - I don't see the point of a semi-modular.

Secondly, regarding SSD's 500/480GB I feel is a minimum.

On a side note, Question yourself on whether you will be watching blu-rays via disc? Seeing as everything can be streamed online (Legally) :D If you're not intending to watch blu-rays via disc, go with a standard optical drive, you will hardly use it in all honesty and you'll save money that can be put into something else.

I believe that the 650W will support a significant overclock on this system, the only reason I can see needing more is if you plan on adding a second GPU in the future. In that case you would want to look at 850W+.

I am not sure why more than 240GB is needed in an SSD, should only be for holding OS and programs. All other files should be sent to the hard drive. I suppose it depends on what you want to load onto your computer.

I do agree that you might not need the Blu-Ray, it was a small cost compared to the rest of the components.

Cheers the reply,

I am not saying 650 watt would not be enough, as it definitely is. However, in 2-5 years time you do not want to be buying another PSU, because a future GPU or other component requires more power. Since his or hers budget isn't as restricted as some I have seen, it would good to spend a bit more for future proofing.

Secondly, regarding the 240GB SSD; true, but I am presuming this guy or girl will be keeping that SSD for years to come, having additional room I do not feel is a bad thing, plus removing the blu-ray player and adding the savings to the SSD budget - you would be able to get a 500GB.

I have a blu-ray optical drive similarly, I thought I would be watching blu-rays all the time, however since streaming is a big presence, I realized I just used it to install Windows :D, which can be done by a USB nowadays.
