Tiger direct, if this is where you are getting your parts from must be running out of hard drives, because they don't list too many on their website anymore.

You picked a 2.5" laptop hard drive instead of a standard 3.5" drive. But again, thats because of the lack of drives appearing on the site.

I would suggest you use www.newegg.com instead.

Here is comparable list from newegg. I've used the same exact part you have unless noted.

Blu-ray drive - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827106348 $114.99

SSD - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820167053 $278.99

Monitor - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824001484&Tpk=S22A350H $199.99

CPU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819115095 $369.99

Motherboard - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131753 $244.99

Memory - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820104173 $49.99

Video - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150521 $179.99

PSU - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817256059&Tpk=modular $129.99 Better brand of psu then the one you picked and 750 watts would be enough even you decide to crossfire.

Case - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119194 $149.99

HDD - http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822136283 $129.99 This is a better drive with a 5 year warranty

Connecting 2 Monitors

Thanks guys for all the help, I really appreciate it. What is needed to connect 2 monitors to one computer? Also which is the best operating system for running an e commerce website?

A video card with 2 outputs, such as 2 dvi connections. So the 6870 will be able to support your 2 monitors. I'm assuming windows 7 will do just fine.

One more thing does a blu ray drive burn and play movies?

A burner will do both. A blu ray drive will just play.
