my configuration, require advice

[sniper]

Im in Kochi. got some hardware, hitachi 250gb sata2 and a few other things, need advice about other stuff.

1) which tft - Viewsonic VA712(10.7k) or Samsung 740N(11.7k) ??

2) which motherboard
ASUS A8N VM
ASUS A8N VM CSM
MSI K8NGM FID

ive heard CSM is giving problems. infact both CSM and MSI give problems CSM being more worse of the two. MSI and CSm have the same features like gigabit lan, firewire, nvidia 6150, tv out. so what should i buy? or should i just go for ASUS vm ?

ill prolly get 3000+

3) hows Logitech X-530 5.1 speakers ?? im getting them here for 5.6k ? worth the money?

4) what should be a fair price for Transcend 1gb DDR400 UCCC chips ?

5) Which box pack dvd writer - Sony DRU820A or LG H10N ?

6) how the iBall laser precise mouse? build quality?(rs 750)
should i go for a simple optical from MS or logitech ?
hows Logitech g1 ??

im not much into gaming i only play CS occasionally.
the above mentioned stuff fall within my budget so if you do suggest some alternative, its cost should be close... you know.

your suggestions !?

Two of my friend in Kottayam own CSM nd is happy with it. No probs yet...It might be some shopkeepers telling dat CSM has probs coz they may be out of stock. Most shopkeepers says bout some products like dat if they find it hard to get and they have some alternative solution for us in stock.

Also Logitech X 530 spkrs is good. Its really nice in treble, but the bass is not much tight. After all its not a THX one. Its way better than competitors like inspire 5200 or AL 251E etc.
