My Desktop Idea, does it Work?

Dude, bomber, you're frickin' amazing at this stuff. Thanks for the changes again, and to everyone post if you can find something cheaper without losing performance. Also, with your changes, the price is now 755$, TOTAL. The ODD's are out of stock, which I hope doesn't last too long. Bomber, do you have a career in this stuff? Because you should go into computer hardware.

Now the complete build looks something like this:

ISNT IT GREAT TO ONLY HAVE TO CLICK ONCE?

(Also, in your signature, you spelled definitely, "Definately"... )

Okay, I changed my case to save some money, and now the price is 740$ counting mail-in rebates AND shipping. I really want this to be 700$ total, so sacrificing some performance may be necessary. If you find something cheaper than one of my items, that is just has a tad bit less performance, POST HERE!

This odd is similar and in stock:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151188

I have personally experienced that case.. and to be honest the airflow in it is less than stellar. Id go for something like this:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156189
or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811226033

This gpu is better AND cheaper(there is a coupon code listed on the page that gives 15% off)
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102824

Since you have a good cpu cooler in the list, you could drop the cpu to this and it would overclock similarly to the 940 for $40 less:

The updated WishList is at http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=8785194 and is now UNDER 700$ which is freakin amazing.

I may change the case to the http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811156189 , but I'll only do it if Bomber looks at my new case I've put on the wishlist. If bomber don't like my new case, then I guess I'll have to change... but I really want those gauges, keep that in mind!

I actually just said one post before that that case is somewhat bad for airflow:P

Apevia power supplies arent that good tbh, and id just go with a psu such as this:
Modular: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817341018

Non modular, but has blue LED and somewhat better power output:

Little off topic... But what part of WI is Janesville in? Closer to the east or west? I know a few people that live in the kiel/newton area(a smaller town between green bay and Milwaukee)

Alright, made some changes, and now the price is even LOWER!

Janesville is in Rock County, in South Central Wisconsin.

And I didn't see a bit of text in one of your posts! I love engineering too! I think I'm gonna learn how to engineer hardware. And we're the same AGE too! I was born February 3rd. You?

22/07/1993 Im thinking about either civil or aerospace engineering when i end up going to college though.
 
Aerospace sounds awesome. Civil engineering is great, but for some reason I hate the title. Makes you sound like a person from the 1700s.

BTW Who's the Administrator for this forum? Because I'd like him to add a feature to the forum.
 
I want him to make a feature where you can click on a link to find your threads/posts. On that page, you can see whether or not there has been a reply on your threads/posts.

Thats prolly not gonna happen... best you could do is subscribe to a thread via email which you already can do...
 
I'm gonna go in for the night, review my revised list one more time today/tomorrow. I think this list is best!
 
Nvidia 6200 seems a bit old... Wont be able to play any half decent games with that. If you want to play games then get a ATI HD50+/nvidia gtx260+
