ᴄʜᴇᴇsᴇ ɪᴛ!

don't buy that. I'm at work now, and am redoing my computer, so I can't get you a good deal right now, however, I would give that build a 2/10 automatically for a total of ZERO combos. (for shame!).

Case: whatever
Mobo: whatever gigabyte/asus/dfi/msi
Video: wait wait wait wait wait. 6000 series comes out on the 18th. Prices of stuff WILL drop eventually.
PSU: I wouldn't recommend a corsair TX. The best deal I can find is the OCZ stealthxstream II 600W. It's a godlike psu for cheap.
Processor: doesn't really matter
RAM: doesn't really matter
HDD: don't buy from newegg ever. ewiz is much cheaper.
Heatsink: don't buy from newegg ever. ewiz is much cheaper.
ODD: no optical?

If you can get everything either with a combo of $20 or more, or a promo code/coupon for $10 or more, then it's a good build.

Just FYI, I made a gtx 460 1GB and 1156 i7 build with 1080p LED LCD monitor for $1100, including a hyper 212+.
found it:

Oh_Man -- No APM in chess. Computer just outthinks the human by seeing more moves ahead and more permutations

NimoStar -- If its any consolation, the human brain would still mop the floor with this bot if it wasn't limited by the mechanical interface
[05:34 pm]
NimoStar -- Well. The bot didn't come up with any new strategy. It just has superhuman micro. Hard to beat that. I reckon even the simplest dedicated chess engines are unbeatable for humans now.

Oh_Man shouted: NudeRaider did u watch the entire video? it's not one game. it's currently dominating the ladder at number 1 position. do ur research first!
Oops, caught me there, no I haven't. :( I was imagining how the game went. Sorry for that. Watching it now. brb

NudeRaider -- NimoStar
NimoStar shouted: They were not "Unprepared" that was their fifth loss in a row against the bot. The other replays are also available
that doesn't mean he was prepared. When humans come around with new strategies it often takes weeks until the pros figure out how to shut it down. Oh_Man that's certainly a way more convincing argument for micro being "too good to beat".
