At the moment, I have: [B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157198"]ASRock 870 EXTREME3 AM3 AMD 870 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard[/URL] [/B][B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129074"]Antec TWO HUNDRED S Black ATX Mid Tower Computer Case[/URL][/B] [B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182032"]Rosewill RP600V2-S-SL 600W ATX12V v2.01 SLI Ready Power Supply[/URL] [/B][B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814131374"]PowerColor AX6850 1GBD5-DH Radeon HD 6850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16[/URL] [/B][B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827151188"]SAMSUNG DVD Burner Black SATA Model SH-S223L LightScribe Support - OEM[/URL][/B] [B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103921"]AMD Phenom II X4 840 3.2GHz Socket AM3 95W Quad-Core Desktop Processor [/URL][/B][B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231278"]G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600[/URL][/B][B][URL="http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16824009256"]Acer S201HLbd Black 20" 5ms LED-Backlight LCD monitor[/URL][/B] (and one or two small things) [B]Or : [URL="https://secure.newegg.com/WishList/MySavedWishDetail.aspx?ID=12614454"]http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWishDetail.aspx?WishListNumber=12614454[/URL] Anyway, I was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas on better choices for things, if I made some really dumb compatibility error, etc. I can't really go much more than $800 on this build, and even that is cutting it tight.

you don't want your OS on a slow green drive swap it with [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822152185&cm_re=spinpoint_F3-_-22-152-185-_-Product[/url] when/if you fill it you can then get a green drive for storage only
Alright, I have quite a bit of external storage anyway, Shouldn't be a problem. Gonna cap it off and throw on the accessories now, thanks.
