It's a good build with the exception of that i'd much rather have a P5B-Deluxe over a bug ridden 680i Mobo any day. Not to mention they are cheaper. That ram should be good but since they are promos hard to tell how good they will run.

EDIT: I dont like the monitor since its 8ms and not widescreen and still expensive here is a better one for cheaper

Hanns-G are very good monitors and that one is 5ms, widescreen, an awesome montor in general in terms of color, and alot cheaper with the instant sale.
