This is my frist post, please be gentle if I am sounding like an idiot.
I am planning build a new i7-920 system shortly, while browsing through various forum threads, I have decided the must have components in the build at the same time I came across this system from Dell Outlet.
Is it a good idea to buy this system and rip the required components and keep the other stuff for future HTPC(2 months later)..?

Above system $719 - 15%off + TAX +FS = $653
The definitely the following components and if I buy them from newegg/ewiz, the costs as follows
Processor - i7-920 - $269
BD Burner - $159
640 GB HD - $65
OS - $99 (I need 64-Bit Vista only)
Keyboard & Mouse - $25
TOTAL - $617
I still have Case, PSU, RAM, Video Card available to build either a HTPC OR HardDrive rack I am planning to build as a side, OR Give it to any people looking for components.
Please let me know if this is such a bad idea..?
Thanks in advance
Siva
