New desktop.
I will buy a new desktop next week. My build is the following:

NZXT Phantom Black
Asus P6X58D-E
i7 950 3.06GHz
Seagate Momentus XT 500Gb
eVGA 570GTX
GSKILL PC3-12800 8gb trident cl7
Corsair gc-800w / NOX Krypton 800w ( One of those).

Any suggestion are highly appreciated if well justified. Also, if my build have any problem please say where it's.
Around 1300€. I will buy all the pieces locally. An SSD isn't a bad idea but if I get one, my budget doesn't allow me to buy a extra disk for storage. I may upgrade it later, though.

Where did you get a 64gb SSD for $60? Normal price for a SSD is around $2 per gigabyte.
hi
A supplier on ebay.
Prices are dropping fast man.

A few months ago even the prices would not have been so low, both for HDDs and SSDs.

Although RAM is still >10/gig ._.
ram is expensive, i hate how ddr2 prices skyrocketed after am3 came out because a few months ago i bought 4gb of ddr2 (not knowing i was going to upgrade my cpu and have to upgrade my MB). when i upgraded i had to purchase ddr3 memory and it was the same price as ddr2 for 4gb of ddr3 1600 memory.

but yea ebay or craigslist (if you're lucky) will have those kinds of deals

local will cost you an arm and a leg for an ssd
You don't say?
A 64GB SDDs costs about 110€ locally, so I can't afford it. An about ram, you guys think I need more ram? I will mainly use program like photoshop and gaming.
