When's the earliest you'll have all the money you need?

I can't recommend anything right now because prices may change between the time of my parts selections and the time you purchase everything.

It's not worth buying parts piecemeal because something could arrive bad or DOA and you'll have no way to test and/or troubleshoot your system.
