Final Budget Gaming Build Review

[thulsu]

I wanted to double check everything and make sure there aren't any compatibility issues and any other input or advice. Thanks much!

Approximate Purchase Date: Within a week


Budget Range: Grand Total: $1,231, after adding keyboard, mouse,

DVD/CD Burner, Windows 7 Home 64bit


System Usage from Most to Least Important: MMO gaming, Streaming

Movies, Surfing the Web, Ventrilo


Parts Not Required: Monitor, Speakers


Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg.com


Country of Origin: United States of America


Parts Preferences: Quadcore and SSD


Overclocking: Maybe


SLI or Crossfire: No


Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080


Additional Comments: I mostly play MMO's and would like to get an

SSD for loading speed. I often have multiple applications open at

one time, such as web browsing, streaming video, ventrilo, game

playing. My current Build is chosen to specifically include a

quadcore CPU and SSD within my price range and some items were

chosen in order to take advantage of Neweggs Combo Discounts. Any

suggestions or advice would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

Everything looks good. I'm assuming the CPU, DDR3, MB, PSU, GPU, and case are all in combo deals because that should be possible. Nice build.
