Alright, guys, thanks for the replies. I think I got it down. Removing the SSD from my rig so that I can meet my budget.

That makes sense. I'm pretty familiar with newegg as well and I like their service.

According to your suggestions, spirit, I'll have shaved off $169 right there. That would allow me to get a more powerful power supply, but would it really matter? I don't know anything about power supply.

That's a good point. I'll do that!

So the SSD has no bearing on gaming then? Because as far as programs and stuff, I think I'll be okay. I'm used to a Duel Core 1.4Ghz laptop with an nVidia GeForce 8400.

So basically I'll have two hard drives, but one is the fast one which I want to put what exactly on it? My games so they run fast? my operating system? What examples can you give me?

Alright, after taking some suggestions from a few users for better/cheaper hardware, I'm still over budget. I need to buy an OS which costs around $100. That leaves me $750 for: A Video Card, Processor, RAM, Hard Drive, SSD, Tower Case, Power Supply, Motherboard, and a DVD Drive. So far I've...

I know SSD means Solid State Drive, but I'm not sure what that is. Is it a type of hard drive? If so, why do I need a regular hard rive and an SSD? I'm currently trying to decide if I'm going to switch from console gaming to PC and I'm building a rig with an $850 budget. Anyways, I'm...

So what areas do you guys think I could spend a little less money without hurting the performance of my build? Really, I can't spend any more than $850, that's all I've got for a rig, and that's including the cost of an OS.

Hey, thanks!

Well I wish I had $1200 to spend. My budget is only $800 and I want something that can play the newest games on Ultra High graphics or I'll probably have to stick to the new Xbox One console for this generation... : (

Actually, I'm thinking of switching over to PC gaming. I'm actually a console gamer. Not sure if I'm going to buy the new Xbox One or build myself a gaming PC. Here's what was recommended for me for my $800 budget. (I actually changed it up a smidgen). Video Card...
