New Computer Build - JayCat - Oct 27 2013
Here is what I have in my newegg basket. It is $886 delivered. Trying to keep it under $1000. Tell me your thoughts.

Honestly... stay away from Radeon. Their gpu's have fallen behind significantly when comparing to Nvidia. Check out some of their latest bench marks.

This baby has a better life time than the one you posted. Although you probably should get a normal HD for software installations and what not. Cheaper and easier in the end-

I am going to have to agree with Cucu on the graphics. NVIDIA > ATI. The only other thing I would add is that I don't think that PSU is going to be good enough for this build. Probably closer to a 800W should be good. Other than that, looks like a solid system. What kind of plans do you have for it?
RE: New Computer Build - Hamaerox - Oct 28 2013
Voting for NVIDIA as well. What about the monitor, mouse, and keyboard? If you have an awesome computer, you should have an awesome set up as well.
RE: New Computer Build - Matt - Oct 28 2013
The SSD mounting kit seems a bit excessive, why do you need one with a fan?
+1 on the Samsung SSD too. I only use Samsung or Intel SSD's.
Why not go with a Blu-Ray Burner/Reader rather than DVD?
