Already had the build done when I noticed the 3 months.

Come back closer to when you are buying as there might be new hard-ware or different prices.

I like that build. Any other suggestions? Id like to keep my options open, And I said within 3 months. Could be next week, Could be 3 months. I just have to wait to activate my paypal account, which is taking its time.

I wouldn't use paypal. They change an additional 3% which is fine for small purchases but a bit much on larger ones. HWVS do a bank transfer payment option which you can do through online banking.

If you want good overclocks you may want to throw in a better after market cpu cooler. This is one of the best budget options. It will run cooler and quieter than the stock heatsink.

Don't have a bank account, Just a 3V card which can be used through paypal.
