^^ the above one looks good..
just going for MSI H67 E35 @4.5 k

good decision

yup..
choose this config i have finalized (IF AND ONLY IF YOU TOO HAVE THE SAME WORK TO DO THAT I HAVE TO, AND WANT THE SAME THINGS THAT I WANT)

PROCCY : i5 2400 @ 3.1GHz 6MB L3 CACHE @ 9.5 K
MOBO : MSI H67 MA E35 @ 4.5 K
RAM : CORSAIR VALUE SERIES 4GB 1333 MHz @ 1.2 K
CASE : CM ELITE 311 @ 1.8 ~ 1.9 K
PSU : CX 430 @ 2 K (I THINK THIS NEEDS TO CHANGE. PL ADVICE)
DVD WRITER : LG GH24NS71 @ 0.8 K
HDD : 500 GB @ 4 ~ 4.1 K (PL SPECIFY MODEL)

TOTAL : ~24 K (YUP.. ITS OWERFLOWN)

SUGGEST..

For PSU price and suggestion look at the above posts.
For HDD get WD 500GB Blue series - comes with 2 years warranty.

Sorry TG, i completely forgot to mention that i was talking to the OP directly.. I meant to say that in his budget, it would be a wise choice to get the fastest non-overclockable processor to ensure some degree of his rig being future proof...

it's OK
