my budget is limited...
since i don't know that much in installing stuff inside the case..
i chose the 1000w psu over the r6gb ram...so i dont have to change it for future upgrades..
then the ram..i just have to buy it in newegg..like the 6gb of corsair dom...
insert it and thats it...
i love frogs!

Good choice, be careful with newegg.  Run a memtest when you get it, sometimes the RAM they sell is faulty.

I prefer TigerDirect.com =)

I think I'll have a platform/cart ready for the dude to put the box on when mine arrives. 

I keep seeing reports of people with their new comp stuck in the driveway. hehe
