Tagan 1100W PSU
Antec 1200 Full Tower Case

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: (Newegg, TigerDirect, Frys, any reputable place.)

Additional Comments: (I’d love something with a fast boot time (from pushing the power button to loading my game) and tons of ram for multi processing. Whatever you think is the best bang for my hard earned buck, you know better im sure. Thanks in advance.

That deal is garbo mainly because they make you spend 120$ on ram and the discount is only 44$. In reality all you save is nothing. Because 8gb or ram is only 80$ and the 44$ savings would equal that.

I say go with something like this.
