Decent specification, would probably have a WD Caviar Black for a primary HDD, the Green ones are more appropriate for a secondary or tertiary media HDD, the Black one is good for storing programs on it (like games, operating system and photo editing suites).

I think most members would recommend a Iiyama (spelling?) monitor. A yours more expensive, but with a set up like yours, which I assume is for gaming, you want a decent display to play it on :D

Click to expand...

Thanks for the tips, I have changed the monitor to the one you've suggested, I also added a better sound-card, I might get the WD Caviar Black as a primary and the green as a second, cheers.

Is it worth getting an SSD 20MB?

As a cache drive, I assume? Apparently it has its benefits, not sure you'll notice a vast difference between a SSD and a Caviar Black HDD too much, but it'd be good for your OS, apparently. Depends on the budget you have :]

Edit: You don't NEED the sound card, the integrated one should do the job, but if you have the money, you might as well :]
