    I would get a better power supply. The minimum recommended for the GTX 560 is 600w. That PSU will be the bottleneck on your system, and more likely than not you will experience lock ups and intermittent self-shutdowns.

    u can find none flashy cases for the same price and with more features and more solid build, also bigger. the power supply is a little low and if u planing to do a 2-way sli or a 3-way u gonna need more power than that.. prolly near a 800W on a solid power supply ( watch the comments when choosing, some PSU claim to have 950 w and work like a 450w) wireless keyboard ... well they aint good for gaming trust me i smashed 2 in the floor and 2 mouses since then imma stay with cord mouses the um g700 mouse is the best, i got that thing and its a monster i tell ya ideal for gaming. that hard drive is only good for data, it will bottle-neck ur pc so get a ssd to run ur OS and games faster my fab is the OCz agt3-25SAT3-120GB Agility 3 Series Solid State Drive, i got that baby runing so smooth on my new rig uff, idk if u like the ress on that monitor.. in my opinion the best ress is the 1920 x 1080 which is the blue-ray ress too ..it comes pretty handy to have it also since monitors are so cheap why not go for a 27 inch 1 LOL 20 in is kinda idk small compared to the rest of ur pc

    GeForce GTX 560 - Specifications - GeForce / even Nvidia GTX 560 TI requires 500W of power supply. Your information is wrong.

    LoL. You must tell me what's bad about it, not just that it's a bad brand so dont get it. What's the difference between these two? Also, I check Asus motherboard & they're not that good -.-

    You need a Solid state drive. 7200 RPM hard drive doesn't do any justice beside just storage. Why have a fast computer when it take 40 secs to load up Windows vs having solid state drive taking 10-20 secs to load Windows.

    So wut? He's not in rush to run his pc, he is not some guy who wakes and sleeps right to the computer, also wuts the problem of keeping it on a day or two ? Also those 20 seconds would cost him over 150$ which is not worthing it at all.

    Edit: About the second post, I asked speeedy if 320 gb are enough for him tho and he said that they are fully and that he won't use them at all. His decision about it.

    For me asus is better than asrock.

    asrock is not a bad brand.

    but if u want a good motherboard then buy Intel Original motherboard.

    SSD might be fast but im not going to use up 1TB of a hardrive no point. Maybe max I would use is only 40gb? As for now, im going with this hardrive b/c as long as it load up in 20s for me, that's good enough.

    first time i bought an asrock motherboard went back to the supplier and changed it to MSI.

    i don't recommend the brand... as they say, first impression... last.

    320 gb is going to be eaten up like a single cake on a hungry mob.

    trust me windows 7 could get about 15% of that.
