Get the HDD from NCIX or Newegg instead. Get the case from Newegg. You can get the HyperX SSD from SuperBiiz for an extra $5, or get this SSD instead;

The Gigabyte Gaming 3 is a better motherboard than that Asus one. On the other hand, Gigabyte's AMD GPU's are kind of iffy lol. It's definitely worth spending the extra $10 for the Sapphire card. Gigabyte's AMD GPU's are only worth it when they're really well priced IMO. Also, this system sacrifices tempered glass and XFire support. Not really worth sacrificing on RAM(a little) mobo quality, GPU quality, XFire support and TG for a larger SSD IMO. Better to get the smaller SSD for now, since 120GB is enough for OS and a couple of games or whatever. Plus it's easy enough to add another SSD in the future, but not as easy to upgrade to tempered glass in the future, or to buy a new PSU for XFire support.
