Is the monitor included in the price?
Do you need Windows 7?

 

[OMG ITZ RP]

No I plan using a friends and getting my own later.
Yes I need windows 7
The 600-700 is for the tower and all its contents +OS
But a monitor recommendation is much appreciated

I definitely like everything but I'm not a big LG fan. I'll probably swap that to the Samsung equivalent.

Thank you
