Dump that mouse, pad and webcam, drop down to a simple Samsung or LG DVD burner.

Looks pretty solid (from my Newb Perspective)...

Are you GUESStimating on your CPU/MB Prices?

Actually, I agree with Blain. The blu-ray drive, webcam, keyboard and mouse are all unnecessary if all you really want to do is "play some of the new mmorpg's that are supposed to come out soon".

Additionally, the RAM is a poor value, the PSU is crap, and the SSD is slow.

Finally, wait until Sandy Bridge actually comes out before asking for advice about how it will perform.
