Building New system Need advice($1,000 budget)

[jematix]

I have done hours of research on how to build a comp and I think I have selected some solid parts that would be good for my needs but input from more experienced people would be very much appriciated. By my needs I mean mostly mid-high end gaming and burning/watching movies and shows.

Budget Range: Hopefully Under $1,000

Parts Not Required: Mouse, Monitor, keyboard, OS, Speakers, RAM(I'll post with parts)

Preferred Website(s) for Parts: Newegg, Amazon, Xoxide or any other recommendations

Country: United States

Overclocking: Most likely no

SLI or Crossfire: Would be cool

Monitor Resolution: 1440x900

Additional Comments: I'll post the parts I have selected in a post below.

A "locked" CPU along with a "P67" motherboard doesn't make sense to me. You can save hundreds of dollar buy going with a H67/H61 motherboard.

Since you're not into overclocking I'd say go with an i5-2400 + H67 motherboard, that'd be nice bet for you. Your monitor resolution is bad if you ask me save bucks and buy a new monitor with those.

Processor/CPU:
Intel Core i5-2400 - $190
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115074

Motherboard:
Asus P8H61-M LE - $68
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131724

RAM:
You already have nice memory sticks

HDD:
Barracuda 7200.12 500GB - $115
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822148701

PSU:
Corsair 650 Watts - $95
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817139020

ODD:
ANY DVD-burner - $20

Case:
NZXT Gamma - $36
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146061

-- Sub: $524 ; Pick any GPU and monitor with remaining bucks you'll be good to go wiht FULL HD entertainment.

Spending over $100 on casing alone is BS specially when you don't need much cooling (in case of not OC'ing).

Hello my friend. you might be better off investing in a new monitor that is 1920 x1080p

A good i3-2100 with H61 motherboard and a 6870 would be more than enough you need since your monitor is so small.

Well if i upgrade my monitor then im guessing i'd need a i5-2400 with a H67 Motherboard? What should I look for in a graphics card to not overdue it for the build(referring to naqqash's build for the most part)
