Finalized AMD Gaming Setup $1,452

all looks good to me....why dont you get a LCD monitor , you can get a 17' for $150 or even $125... but if your a fan of CRT's the one you picked out is prolly a good one;)
 
i picked the CRT cause i go to LAN parties often and i dont wanna risk breaking an LCD. plus the CRT is bigger and has a higher resolution. the main reason was resolution.
 
Also with a CRT you can have a much higher refresh rate without spending the big bucks... mine has a 185 MHz refresh rate.
 
one suggestion. if you want to play counterstrike source or maybe even cs 1.6, you might want to get a logitech with an mx engine. that mouse is good for general use but if you're trying to check corners and flicking your wrist really fast, that mouse will go all over the place and skip like crazy.
 
the logitech mx510 or 518 are excellent mouses, but are only needed for first person shooter games, otherwise stay with the mouse u have

It is way cheaper . There is no proof it last way longer. You can not run out of plasma unless you totally destroy the product. Its compounded in.

LCD's are known to lose pixels during time or Mishandling, that is why they are way cheaper than plasma screen. Picture is done on opinion based. but Plasma is post clearer in resolution. scientifically proven ect ect.
 
plasma's also have burn in, but lcd's do last way longer than plasma, after a few years the plasma's quality pretty much dies

LCD's will last around 50,000 hours while a plasma will last around 20,000 hours. Also, lcds can be small and big. Plasmas dont go below 37 inches generally. Plasmas are also subjected to burn in. I have a 26 inch sharp lcd, i dare you to find a better looking tv.
 
also with a crt you can have a much higher refresh rate without spending the big bucks... mine has a 185 mhz refresh rate.
well two things:
1. lcds dont have refrsh so there not a comParison there
2. you're not running it at 185mhz refresh are you?;)

@ripken lilm3boi : seem liek you missed the mod's "suggestion" to stay on topic. this is a second 'reminder'

alright i updated the link. tell me what you think
get a different dvd burner, litey's as of late have "issues" have a look at CD/DVD 101.
