Ok so I was given advice a while ago about what would be a good build on a budget and now that I am ready to buy in the next 2-3 days I'm looking to revise the build to include promotions maybe that are going on.
I have a $690 budget now
This is what I had so far:
cpu + mobo combo : http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboDealDetails.aspx?ItemList=Combo.953422
Memory: Mushkin Silverline 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1333 Memory ($44.99 @ Newegg) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226095
Hard Drive: Hard Drive: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=22-136-769&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&Pagesize=10&PurchaseMark=&SelectedRating=1&VideoOnlyMark=False&VendorMark=&IsFeedbackTab=true&SelectedRating1=1&Keywords=%28keywords%29&Page=1#scrollFullInfo
Video Card: EVGA GeForce GTX 560: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130661
PSU: Rosewill HIVE Series HIVE-550 550W: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182131
Case: Source 210 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146078
Optics: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827135204
I have a question about the hard drive.
It says its a bare drive does that mean I have to get the wires myself? Will the wires from my old hard drive work?
Does anything else work like this? Do I have to expect to get wires in the other parts as well like the optical drive?
I have one of the three hard drives listed in this link:

I don't know which one of the three hard drives I have
I see newegg has this 30 day free shipping thing I don't know if that applies to all parts, but you can use
that if you're trying to help me stay under my 690 budget
I'm planning on getting an i5-2500k and maybe a future gpu upgrade in the future so you can also lmk if the psu will hold up.
Thanks for any help you can provide.
If you want to make another suggestion on my graphics card then thats ok too. By taking out the graphics card I have now that would free up about $220 for a different gfx card.
