How's this pc looking

Hello
I don't really have much exp with building pc's, but diablo 3 is launching soon and I really need to upgrade. So tell me what you think

I've got two hard drives and an optical drive from a friends gaming pc, and I'm undecided on which monitor to get.
Lemme know what you think

If you are planning on overclocking the 2500K, you will need to pick a different MB as the H61 chipset will not allow for overclocking. Also if you are wanting to overclock, I would suggest a different Aftermarket cooler such as the Coolermaster 212 or 212 EVO.

If you are not planning on Overclocking, than drop the Processor down to the i5-2400, and remove the aftermarket thermatake fan, and the build will be fine.

jus panning on over locking. just going to be gaming, and at most using photoshop, dream weaver, music editing software, and streaming videos.

Updated, I'm kind of clueless on monitors and what kind of monitor I should be grabbing.

The i5-2400 is a locked processor, so you cannot overclock it, so there is no need for the 212 in the latest update.

Seeing as you are wanting to overclock and the budget is looking like you are trying to stay around $800, i'd shoot for a build similar to this:

The board will allow you to overclock with the 2500K, has a great aftermarket cooler, the ram will have no trouble clearing the cooler and is good quality, as well as having a very nice modular PSU for cable management.

Thank you. I'll post pictures of it once it's completed. Any ideas on what to do with two old pc's?
