Need some config advice

   Hello everyone,

I'm really glad I discovered this forum and I am admittedly pretty new to this.  My old HP just died (BSOD) and I was shopping for a replacement, along with old files to be recovered and transferred from my old HD to my new set-up.   I was originally looking at an HP h8xt, but as I was investigating the parts and the I7 2600k, my search landed me here.  DS got such great reviews (PCMag & etc), so I decided to see what I could get. 

My budget aside from a monitor is in the $1500 range.  The monitors that I'm looking at are the HP ZR24w, ZR22w, and 2310e.  So, I'm guessing that the resolution can be based on that.  I'm mainly a FPS player and will also be using this computer for image editing, lots of office work, and somewhat for entertainment at times.

I checked out the Ode, but was hoping for some input as to the configuration of this Renegade that I made.  (Blu ray is a must - I've converted my whole library)

Thanks

	The ODE Level 1 is a vastly better config for the money. I would say just get the ODE Level 1 and buy/install a Blu-Ray drive youself.
