Hey everyone, I'm building a comp for my bro. Mainly for gaming and school. We're not going for a screaming system but something a little more mid-range and around a grand. I've done some research and it looks like everything here would be compatible. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks.

The video card is not the best, but it's SLI (for the future upgrade) and seems to be the best bang for the buck. Also, what's everyone's opinions on a good LCD for gaming? Probably something around $250. Thanks!
