The left column has both a 120GB SSD and a 1TB HDD, the middle only has the HDD and the right only has the SSD.I didn't include a monitor in it as you can really just reuse a old one. Any criticisms or anything important that I forgot?
The whole SSD/HDD thing seems useless, I'd just add them in at the bottom, but make their individual price the total price of everything.
It's okay, but your GPU will bottleneck your CPU to an extent, a 6870 would be a better match. Also you can save some money on the HDD by getting an 1TB Spinpoint F3 which will perform almost exactly the same
don't they already have one of these named like the falcon pc guide or something
I never said it was a good spreadsheet.
In my opinion, as said before, go for a 6870 instead, and a Spinpoint. And as for the motherboard, I would pick one with x8 slots, and I would go for a PSU that can support 6870s in Crossfire.

maybe even cheaper RAM

That's not better at all, you didn't listen to our advice. Get a spinpoint F3, it performs the same an is cheaper. Get a better matching CPU and GPU. You can get better, cheaper, modular PSUs. You should be getting a motherboard that supports SLi/Crossfire for that price
Why make a spreadsheet? Seriously?
Oh god, you made a spreadsheet, here, have a medal.
Naw. A screenshot would do.

Also listen to peoples' advice.
Also you could clean up the product names, everybody knows what's an "Intel Core i5 2500K" is even if you didn't specify the amount of caches and wattage etc.
But yes, Falcon guide is a good layout for your own spreadsheets, take notes from it and maybe your spreadsheet won't be such an eyesaw.
Seems like FP has something against teeny oorl so [url=http://i1002.photobucket.com/albums/af150/The_FalconO6/CurrentLogicalPCBuyingGuide/Guide.png]HERE[/url] is the latest version of Falcon Guide
although for a personal single build spreadsheet I'd go with a vertical layout, but that's just me.
Hii!
I just want to know why you have made spreadsheets and if you will make it then please send me. Actually I want it for my knowledge.
