Upgrade to 650W to future proof it.

I think you're skimping a bit on the motherboard, and you can take a bit from the RAM. Other than that, the build's pretty solid, although you'll need to buy an optical drive.

its a $625 build made by tomshardware, and it should be a guideline for ur build imo.

Were you going to use the stock CPU cooler? You can get an alright heatsink/fan for around 35 bucks. I wouldn't necessarily recommend that case, I'm sure you can get a better one for $75. I've had a number of bad experiences buying Rosewill, to the point of now going out of my way to avoid them. Oh, and peripheral drives? A Lite-On or LG 20/22x DVD burner, and any FDD.

don't skimp on the PSU.

having a couple hundred dollars of your new shit die is not worth it.
