No Samsung Hard Drives or Optical drives, Samsung makes great monitors and TVs but they should have stayed out of the hard drive and optical drive market.
I would recommend an Asus Optical Drive and a WD Hard Drive. I see you did not include a motherbard, here is a good one at a low price Newegg.com - ASUS M4A77D AM3/AM2+/AM2 AMD 770 ATX AMD Motherboard The Video card you chose if failes you will have zero support on it, Newegg will not take it back after 30 days, I recommend you go with an Asus GTX460, or an eVGA!

I would also recommend a bit stronger power supply. 430 watts is cutting it a bit close.
Newegg.com - CORSAIR CMPSU-550VX 550W ATX12V V2.2 SLI Ready CrossFire Ready 80 PLUS Certified Active PFC Compatible with Core i7 Power Supply We've been seeing major issues with G.skill memory recently - recommend Corsair, Crucial, Kingston, or A-Data. Best deal for a DVD burner on Newegg right now is the Sony - it has free shipping. Newegg.com - Sony Optiarc Black 24X DVD+R 8X DVD+RW 12X DVD+R DL 24X DVD-R 6X DVD-RW 12X DVD-RAM 16X DVD-ROM 48X CD-R 32X CD-RW 48X CD-ROM 2MB Cache SATA CD/DVD Burner - CD / DVD Burners Last edited by glc; 12-12-2010 at 11:33 AM. |

Okay, I switched to the Corsair 550W, WD HD, and A-Data memory.
I found this for my GPU: Newegg.com - ASUS ENGTX460 SE DC/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 460 SE (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card That work? |

For just 46 bucks more than the Athlon, you can get a Phenom II X4 BE.
within the next couple weeks I'd bet NE will be having some smashing deals and combos with AMD CPUs.

I'd get this instead of the SE - and after rebate it's actually cheaper:
Newegg.com - ASUS ENGTX460 DirectCU/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 460 (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card |
