Better computer

Whoa, thanks. I'll be sure to take that into consideration, however, I don't see a monitor listed, and that'll be part of my build.

If you add them the price comes in to under a thousand, I didn't add the mouse keyboard and monitor but did take them into consideration

Awesome, thanks again man.

You're going to have bottlenecking issues with that CPU/GPU. Downgrade the CPU, upgrade the GPU. 560 Ti is a good one. Hell, if your budget is simply "under $1000", just upgrade the GPU.

8 GB of RAM is total overkill. Don't bother with that. 4 GB is enough for anything.

1 TB of HDD is also kind of overkill. 500 GB should be plenty unless you have/pirate movies. Get a 6 GB/s SATA drive.

Also: USE THIS

Oh, and a floppy drive is good too if you don't have one. You might need it to install drivers, you never really know.

Taking the comments of both ECrownofFire and devildogelite into great consideration, I've put together a more final list of parts.

Is this better?

And about the floppy drive, I don't think I'll ever need one.

You need to make the wishlist public.

top best you can build it by yourself. pick out nice case/tower with cool water inside computer.

I don't know about OP's PSU.

I'm oddball when it comes to powersupplies.

The PSU should be fine. Plenty of power, and bronze certified. The only thing that I could really see being a problem is that it doesn't come with a power cable. But that's only if he doesn't have one already. They're all universal anyway.

Antec PSUs are some of the best. They are super quality, like the organic food of the computer world.
And it's 80+ Bronze.

I thought I did. I selected it and clicked "Make Public."

I would have suggested getting the Asus P5ND, but it's out of stock. :/

Ah, I found the problem. You need to give people this link instead. That is your build, right?

It looks good, anyway. Can't really think of anything to add.
