You would be best off giving us a TOTAL max budget, instead of per component. That way we can use the entire budget to find a good mix for what you need.

For example...1-2 optical drives less than $100? You won't need anywhere close to that much money for even 2 drives, while that extra money could be spent on another component...and vice versa.

I assume we can just add up your max budget for the components to find your complete budget, but would like you to throw out a number.

You will need a power supply, and probably want an aftermarket cpu cooler as well.
