So roughly $900.00? That should get you a nice system.

2 things,

Do you plan on overclocking?

Get a LCD monitor if you are staring at the screen all day long like me (I have an 18" Sony LCD) or you would like more room on your desk, in my opinion CRT's are better for gaming over LCD's & I would rather spend the difference on better components for you machine.
