I'm purchasing within the next forty-eight hours, trying to make sure each component is the best option and value. All prices mentioned are from Newegg.com, except for the case which I can purchase cheaper at a local retailer.
Primary uses involve MMORPG and FPS gaming on a twenty-three inch monitor (possible second monitor of equal size and resolution, purchased at a later date), graphic art and manipulation, programming, and an assortment of low-resource tasks. I'm still a bit unsure for which GPU I should purchase, and if the Antec Nine Hundred will be able fit all the above components. Future plans involve combining a small SSD to run fundamental programs and operating system procedures, while the large terabyte HDD consolidated for media and secondary operations.
