first off buy your monitor from newegg or another retailer you will get a way better deal Newegg price= $659 DS price= $769 you make the decision, drop windows 7 ultimate to windows professional unless you have to have it, you dont need the extra performance fans, or the add on usb 3.0 your mobo has a ton and the case itself has some, the higher speed ram is not going to benefit you, i would go with the 3820 instead of the 3930 if you are doing lots of rendering those extra cores will become usefull,

You are free to add or remove HDDs and DVD drivers as you see fit. But build a good core system first.
