Asrock Z77 Extreme 6 Mainboard
Nvidia GTX660Ti 2GB
Verbatim 120GB SSD
Blu-Ray DVD Burner
Two G-Skill DDR3 2133 8GB GBXMs

Is this a good deal for $1500 Australian dollars?

Hey buddy,
For some reason it's not showing prices for some pieces. As I've just bought most of this stuff a little while ago for myself, I can tell you the rough prices.
$1430 (give or take either way)
I usually go through scorptec, as it's 5 mins down the road but I picked up most of mine build from pccasegear on price alone.

You can swap PSU to:

If you don't think the antec is good enough (Non-modular = more cables) but for that price it's amazing, really performs to.

Good luck with build, hit me up if need any help.
