1. Get i5-2500k and a p67 if you are ever thinking of overclocking

2. 4GB of RAM is enough for basically everything except hardcore video editing/rendering

3.PSU is from a terrible brand, get a Corsair, XFX, Seasonic, or antec

4. Don't use an HDD under 7200rpm as your main Hard drive

Different state, so much shit to go through if it gets shipped here. And MSY/ITE is the trusted 'cheap' place here.
