What's the tax rate? I'm gonna go with... 12%. So $1320 actual budget.
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6824005363
At $120 for 1080p IPS, this is a great deal! Get a few.

This is a good quiet case and sometimes goes on sale for $80.

$175 250GB 840 EVO
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... 6819116899
$240 Core i5 4670K
~$80 for some mechanical keyboard
~$60 for a nice mouse
~$160 for 2x8GB RAM
~$140 for motherboard
~$200 for like an HD7870 or GTX 660
~$65 for a 450W 80 PLUS GOLD rated PSU
$0 remaining. If you wait for sales like how I quoted sale prices for the monitor and case (but not for the rest), you should be able to upgrade some things a bit.
But I'd go with the general $$$ balance I have between the parts.
Most definitely don't fall for that OMG I NEED A 700W PSU bullshit.

And this is why I post my questions here. I have been with bandwidthplace2 since it's split with bandwidthplace. Always coming here, that is until palmboy decides to get rid of it.

I use my web host (now VPS) to host my pictures and do whatever else I want to do. Leaving this forum running on it as well ain't no biggie.
So, I really can't see why I'd decide to get rid of the forum. No promises though!
Oh yeah I forgot about the CPU cooler! Stock is fine and all, but if you want quieter then look for some more sale prices to save up ~$20 for a regular tower cooler like the 212 EVO.

Newegg sale for 2x8GB RAM, today only (the stated starting time is correct but it doesn't end at the stated end time, ever).
