You didn’t list RAM, but if you’re not overclocking no need to get anything other than DDR3-1333 (8gb should run ~ $40). SSD is probably overkill for this application too, but since hdd prices are so high right now might as well.

Whups, RAM added above. Same thing you named except 1600. Prices for 1333 and 1600 are almost the same it seems. Agreed, normally I wouldn’t consider an SSD but HDDs are absurd $$ still so I figured I’d throw in a 60gb SSD to just make it run for now. Actually, might throw it in my work computer when I get the HDDs for this. Hmm…

Thanks!
