    Of course it's my luck... the Newegg deal had died before I pulled the trigger. Price aside, what would you recommend for a motherboard now?

    Burners are SATA. If an additional 100 - 200 could be allocated, is there anything you would adjust? Upgrade the SSD to 256GB or 840 Pro? Heatsink? Step up from the WD Blue?

    Excellent! I know that I didn't mention it, but I've got a handful of DVD burners laying around so I can scratch the included one. Also, current system is in an Antec P182. Is the P182 still a viable case? I may swap the stuff...

    The 27" J Macker posted looks enticing. But I would consider a monitor purchase a month or two out. And definitely an impulse move.

    Infrequent is a better term. Last game I played was Skyrim. My 8800GTS could touch that game on low. Planning on playing Bioshock Infinite,Metro, AC3, Dishonored, and BF4. If actual free time allows, I'll be lucky to get to one of those :)
