Those are the prices of the parts I just ordered. I picked up a WD Cavier 250g SATA HDD earlier today and already have a ThermalTake Armor Case.
All in all the total price came to:
$760 inc Case, and HDD i already got.
Not too bad.
Cant wait, big build this weekend!!!!!

They raised the price on the TX750 to 95, and they have one of those one day deals on the 850. For the same price im gettin the bigger one.
My current rig is a laptop (amd of course) and this is my 3rd self built rig. Me and my dad built a 2100+ and 5000+
