If the monitor isn't essential, then I'd recommend an upgrade on the cooler and possibly the GPU.

Any way the Storm scout 2 case will fit the budget? i really like the case and am set on it. Dont need thata big of a SSD as well. could make do with a 120

Keyboard: Logitech Call of Duty: MW3 Edition Wired Gaming Keyboard ($59.66 @ Amazon Canada)

Seriously? =D

Also i'd switch those 1800mhz rams into cheaper 1660mhz rams, since regural joe wont see any difference on them.

[tempis]

was thinking that too, Maybe 6 gigs or even 4 and ya, i know i said a keyboard but i wouldnt go with that one, would prob look at a MS, or Logitech (normal version)

- the ram tenangry posted is as cheap as 1600 mhz ram, so why dont go for a faster ram then and for a gaming machine u want 8 gig.
-you could lower the ssd to a 120 gig and save around 70$ on that which u can invest in your desired case.
-i dont know about the keyboard but thats personal preference anyway. i myself like the microsoft sidewinder x4.

go with tenangrys suggestion and switch the 250 ssd to a 120 and invest the saved money in to your case

Eh, i was looking at the gaming Logitechs, which were of equal value. In addition, the RAM was only Ca$5 more than the 1600MHz equivalent. I'd be willing to pay slightly more for marginal increases in synthetics.

See above.

Just need someone to look over this, and see if any changes should be made. I don't want to spend anything more then this want to save some money for a monitor and keyboard later.

Looks pretty solid - only thing I might change is to an 840 EVO SSD instead of the HyperX 3K.

[tempis]
