Approximate Purchase Date: Some time in May
Budget Range: My max spending budget is $1600, however I would like the most bang for the buck.
System Usage from Most to Least Important: Gaming, Programming, Small amount of video editing, Movies
Parts Not Required: I don't need speakers, mouse or keyboard
Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg
Parts Preferences: by brand or type: I would prefer Intel+Nvidia however if there is anything better, than I would rather go with that.
Overclocking: I have never over clocked before but I plan on over clocking
SLI or Crossfire: No
Monitor Resolution: 1920x1080
Additional Comments: This is the build I have so far, however I am unsure about several parts.
NZXT Phantom PHAN-001BK Black Steel / Plastic ATX Full Tower Computer Case-$140(I really like the look of this case and it seems like a good one also)
XFX Core Edition PRO850W (P1-850S-NLB9)-$120(I think this is a good deal as it is a 850w Bronze power supply for a reasonable price, which should give me a lot of room for over clocking and if I decide to upgrade monitor and graphics card in the future)
Intel Core i7-2600K-$315 (I'm not really sure whether to pick up a 2500k or a 2600k, Is hyper threading good for the tasks I listed?)
COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 Plus-$35
SAMSUNG Black 22X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 16X DVD+R DL 22X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 12X DVD-RAM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 32X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM 2MB Cache SATA CD/DVD Burner - OEM-$20
SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive-$65
G.SKILL Sniper 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) Desktop Memory Model F3-10666CL9D-8GBSR-$85(Whats the difference between DDR3 1333 and DDR3 1600?)
ASRock P67 EXTREME4 (B3) LGA 1155 Intel P67 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard-$160(I'm still deciding between this one or the P8P67 Pro, they both seem like good motherboards)
ASUS ENGTX570 DCII/2DIS/1280MD5 GeForce GTX 570 (Fermi) 1280MB 320-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card-$350
ASUS VH238H Black 23" Full HD HDMI LED Backlight LCD Monitor w/Speakers 250 cd/m2 ASCR 50,000,000:1-$180(I wasn't sure about picking the right monitor and I picked this one because it has several reviews on newegg and also had a 2ms response time which is good for gaming)
Windows Home Premium-$100
This brings me to $1570
Any feedback is appreciated and thanks!
