I am building this PC for my brother and I want him to have a decent rig but I dont want to sink a ton of money into it. I am going to be using my Prefered Account with Newegg.com and want to keep the payments as low as possible while still providing him a decent gaming rig to play current games on high settings 1080P.

What I have in mind so far (please feel free to make adjustments if there are just as reliable hardware that performs as well that will save me money.)

Need:

Case: NZXT Phantom 410 Gunmetal $100
CPU: i5 3570k $220
Heatsink: Hyper 212 EVO $35
MoBo: ASRock Z77 Extreme4 $135
GPU: Sapphire 100352-2L 7950 $280
PSU: Corsair HX 750W 80 Plus Gold Modular $130
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB $80
Optical: ASUS DRW 24x DVD-Burner $20
Monitor: ASUS VH236H 23" 1080P Widescreen w/Speakers $150
Keyboard: Lite-On PS/2 $8

Own:
Mouse: Logitech Performance MX
OS: Windows 7 Home 64bit
RAM: Corsair Vengeance Low Profile 8GB 1600


SSD: Leaving for brother to purchase...due to luxury not a necessity.

Total $1178 w/shipping and rebates.
Monthly Payment $99 0% Interest 12 months

Also giving him $250 to put toward this build cutting the cost total to $928 at $78 a month
