Thats a 2gb model. You dont need 2gb of VRAM. 1gb is fine, save like 60 bucks.

Who cares, it's low-end TN monitors so just pick whatever looks good.

I'm not sure if Dell coupons stack but if they do, there's a 22" Planar monitor with fully adjustable stand and speakers for like $100.

Thanks. =D So would this be what I'm looking for? There are some $250 ones I could push for too, but I think I'd probably be fine with this. xD

Both monitors would be fine, there's not really much difference between them. (One is one inch bigger but costs $50 more.) And both are going to perform well. Get a tape measure out, measure 24" diagonally (use an existing screen or guesstimate the angle), and decide if you want to spend $50 more for that extra inch.

Dell coupons do not stack. They *can* stack if you call Dell. You should always contact Dell on the phone if you want the best deal since the flesh and blood staff really want you to spend money.

Uh your order is under $100 so obviously free? Unless you want express RMA for a case and DVD burner... which wouldn't make much sense.

Additional insurance with express RMA. If it really is only $1.98, you might as well pay a buck more so that if you have a defective product, you can return the product without any hassle.

No. Rosewill Green was never recommended. The Rosewill Capstone 450 was at $60 which was the best option for the majority of single GPU builds but now Newegg raised its price to $70, it's not that attractive anymore. And for your build, $70 for the power supply is definitely high.

You dont need that much wattage.

Get something like this instead.
