no problem, and im still learning about computers and stuff, first wtf is with that monitor? 1680 x 1050 is some whack resolution like i never seen that before, for not much more money you could get a Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge CPU which i think is better, also it wouldnt be a huge cost to get maybe 8 gb ram and maybe try to get 1866, and also a beter faster harddrive would be good, maybe an SSD too if you have the money, also bluray drives arent that much and from what i have seen they play dvds aswell, and everything else im not exactly sure on, but do you need a OS too or do you have one already

corsair/seasonic/silverstone/pc p&c/antec/xf are the brands to get for psu's, the corsair cx600 should be fine for you, prob something similar in combo with the case or a gpu or something, and always check all the combos.

The Antec 900 has a poor cable management. I would go for something like this -

The rest of the build looks great :D

as far as i know they are about equal other than one taking up room in the case but a little less on the outside, i mean a usb 2.0 slot can go up to 480mb/s so it is way faster than you will ever get your internet

For wireless total throughput won't really differentiate, however latency might. I'd be saving the X1 slot for a sound card as well.

Keeping your monitor, here's an $800 build:

CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115072

Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157229

RAM: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231351

GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127518

HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152185

PSU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817207015 (has a nice rebate)

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119240

That's $864.93 without factoring in rebates or shipping.

Yes but 1600MHz 6-8-6-24 is just about equal to 1866MHz 9-10-9-27. So there's no real benefit. The sweet spot is 1600MHz with the lowest timings you can find.
