Hello i am helping out a friend and i am building a gaming pc for him with a $1200 budget. He already has a monitor, speakers, and a dvd drive so dont need those.
Here are the parts:
CPU Cooler:
-Xigmatek Dark Knight
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835233029
RAM
-OCZ Reaper 4 gigs 1066
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227289
Case
-Cooler Master HAF 932
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119160
Motherboard (Changed)
-EVGA 750i SLI
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813188026
Graphics
-MSI gtx 260 core 216
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127409
Power Supply
-Corsair 750w
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139006
CPU
-Q9550
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115041
Harddrive
-Western Digital Caviar Black 640 gig
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136319
OS
-Vista home premium 64 bit
-http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116488
Thermal Paste
-MX-2

So a couple things he wants is to add another gtx 260 down the road so 750w should be enough. He will be overclocking so the cpu cooler is perfect. His monitor is a 37" vizio, i do not know the rez but the 260 should perform fine. I tried to convince him to have a e8400 instead of the quad but he wants to futureproof so its fine.
It comes down to $1194 and with the mail in rebates $1120
How do the parts look?
