Hello,

This is what i have picked out so far. Only thing i've bought so far is the mobo. Is there anything you would change in here except the mobo?

CPU: Intel Core i5-3570K 3.4GHz Quad-Core Processor ($214.99 @ Amazon)
Motherboard: Intel DZ77BH55K ATX LGA1155 Motherboard ($89.95 @ Amazon) (lightning deal)
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory ($39.99 @ Amazon) (CML8GX3M2A1600C9)
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($129.99 @ Amazon)
Storage: Samsung 840 Series 120GB 2.5" Solid State Disk ($94.95 @ B&H)
Optical Drive: Lite-On iHAS124-04 DVD/CD Writer ($17.99 @ SuperBiiz)

I also need help picking out the last few parts. I need a gpu, psu, and case. I have a budget of about $2-300 more. I'd like a decent video card that could handle animation software/ 3D software and games like starcraft 2, diablo 3, fallen elemental, etc. I like mmorpg's but not something like WoW that you pay monthly so online play is not a huge factor currently (it might be in the future since i'll have a computer that could finally handle it ).

Thank for the help!

p.s. This week is black friday and then cyber monday right after that, so if you know any places in miami to get a good deal on anything on the top please let me know. Thanks!

Hi, I would change that 3tb into a WD. Seagates only have 1 yr warranty while WD is 2 years.

Samsung 830 is a better SSD drive for only a few more bucks.

That's all.

EDIT: You might want to switch your 8gb for 16gb.

Hey, thanks!

For the 3tb i was actually in the process of changing it when i found newegg selling it for 50% off with a 3 year extended warranty for $9 so i ended up getting that instead because it's a good deal.

Isn't the 840 a better SSD because it's a new one that just came out a month ago? Some people were iffy about it using TLC instead but the performance on it so far has been pretty good or am i missing something?

Wow that is a cheap 560Ti.

830 is the better one. It doesn't mean that something is new, it's immediately better than the old one.
