To OP: if you don't plan on upgrading the monitor resolution, then jbakerlent's power supply is not needed because you won't need to crossfire/sli. So you can save a few bucks on the power supply
Other than that, his build is great for your needs

Since you are not building for at least another month you should keep checking for deals. You can usually find a really good combo deal every once in a while and save money that way. I'm sure there will be plenty of deals on black friday as well.
^i don't think black friday offers a lot of computers deal or even any.
for sure cyber monday will have a lot of deals on computer parts.

Are there any other ways I can shave off some of the price to get it down to around 700? I really have never overclocked so that doesnt matter to me. The only things that matter for me are a good motherboard and graphics card.
