Okay let me start off by saying that I am new here. I am working on my first computer build to replace my Dell XPS ONE and Inspiron 1545. This is my first draft, if you want to call it that, for my build. Can you guys tell me what you think about it. The main purpose of the computer will be gaming. Also, my budget is a strict $1500 (though I would like to stay in the $1000 area.)

Spacing this so it doesn't look like the mouse is in there twice.

I have decided to keep my Logitech K120 Keyboard because it hasn't really given me problems and I figured I was going to run Windows 7.
 
First off - Cool Username
Your current build is good.
But I would like to suggest some changes.

PSU - This is a Seasonic PSU - $59(after rebates)

Monitor - $180 NEC makes some best displays.I would always choose NEC over any other main-stream brand.

And as for HDD

I have heard really good reviews of this HDD.

You can check out these two CPU HSFs and go nuts overclocking. :D

and this one is pretty cheap because its open box but as far as HSFs are concerned I think getting an openbox is a safe choice.

I have slowed down in the last year, side issue. Not been building as many systems in the last year. But I have probably bought over 12,000 bucks worth of stuff in the last 12 months. More then that in years before.

I have (not) received one used part from Newegg, sold as new. Not one from anybody really and I buy alot from newegg/Tiger/Mwave and SuperBiiz.
