Hello everyone,
Im new to the whole building my own computer scene and i was doing some research and stumbled onto this website and get some input on my build. A friend of mine and I narrowed it down to this build but i would like to get some more input from the community. This is my first build and 2nd computer ever (first one is a crappy dell c521) so please let me know what you guys think/what i should add or remove.

Any input is appreciated. My local fry's store should be having a sale this weekend so im going to stop by and see if they have any good deals for my parts and also purchasing parts through newegg.
Thanks everyone!
