It's ok. You'd be best choosing bits yourself though.

I can't, the HDD prices being shot up just ruined my budget. So I had to get this to stay around my budget :/.

You know you don't have to buy off Newegg?
They are really expensive for HDD prices now. Oh well, sounds like you already bought it. Enjoy your new machine.

Unfortunately all the cheap ones have gone out of stock, for now.

Should be cheap, that's all I can really say.

It will probably take a while to restock. That's the whole reason the prices shot up. Flood in taiwan destroyed the hard drive making process and kept it so there's a limited stock, so restocking will take a while.

Ok, off the hard drive topic. What could I change in the combo? I don't really feel like the need of changing the case, as the case  I don't really need to worry about. Mobo is OK, processor is great, GPU is great, RAM is good, PSU is good.

PSU is stuff.
Case could be better quality.

Look, you don't have to change anything if you don't want. Just a suggestion.

Not directly related to computers, but it doesn't need its own topic: are these headphones good for the price? They seem to have excellent reviews and I'm strongly considering purchasing them.

I don't see how. It's peak is 780W, normal 600W, but I don't even need that much.

And I'm not arguing, just expanding on it.

Like you went on with your Rosewill thing;
It's not the wattage, it's the quality. If the PSU starts failing because it's not very good, then you could end up frying your whole system. Not worth it IMO.

They look decent. Do you really strive for that good quality sound, or are you looking at producing your own music or something?
Might be best to look at reviews as I don't own a pair.
