Cousin wants a $750 machine that can surf the web, play music, and use and auto-CAD program at the same time. I put together the following list, what do you think?

$166 CPU: AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE 3.2GHz
$120 RAM: Mushkin Enhanced Blackline 4GB (2 x 2GB) DDR3 1600
$85 MOBO: ASUS 785G AMD AM3 ATX
$120 PSU: Corsair 650 HX Modular
$110 HDD: 1TB WD Caviar Black
$100 CASE: Antec 900 Black Steel ATX
$50 OPTICAL: LG Black 22x DVD Burner

Total: $751

What do you think? (He already has KB, Mouse, OS, Monitor)

This should be a perfect system! The HDD you picked is the one I have in my system and it is really fast. I think your cousin will enjoy it!
If you get case from newegg, you get a $40 rebate on the Antec 900 bringing the price down to $60

doh! just followed your link and you already know- looks good-
nice choices
