~6 GB Patriot DDR3 Triple Channel RAM = $200
~Blu-ray Burner DVD/RW CD/RW = $200
~128 SSD Hard Drive for Operating system = $400
~1.5 TB seagate drive for music, movies, games, and backups. = $120
~850 Watt PSU = $200
~GTX 295 = $500
~Coolermaster Cosmos 1100 Case, with 2 extra 200 MM fans = $250
~Windows Vista x64 bit Ultimate $300

but i dont think i can trust him
 
Yes, that is best gaming set-up. However, I don't feel the money well spend.

CPU: Is it really worth to pay extra going for 940?? The $300 i7 920 could easily be overclock

Blu-ray Burner: I don't see the point of having Blu-ray Burner at the moment. I suggest going for blu-ray rom for reading blu-ray disk, and having a normal DVD burner

SSD Drive: Do you really need 128GB?? My OS partition hardly use over 20GB. Would it be better to chop down to 64GB??

Case: Do you really need full atx case? Why not a cheaper mid-atx?
 
aftermarket cooler is going to be needed for the ocing though...... and obviously, you won't be paying $300 for a good cooler, more like $75 at most, so you'll save a good bunch of money.
