sorry but this isnt a good build, instead of getting the asrock extreme 4, get the p8z77m motherboard (from tigerdirect.com) with the gskill sniper 8gb ddr1600 1.25v ram, gtx 660 is good but you could get it cheaper from ebay, go with the i5 3350p instead with no overclocking, cheaper than the i5 3570k but still great performance and slightly lower power drawn, dont get any additional case fans, 2 fans is good enough in a case on medium fan settings or even low if you want a quieter pc, for thermal paste, go with the prolimatech pk3 1.5g from ebay, its slightly better than the arctic silver 5 in keeping temperatures lower, i see you picked out a aftermarket fan, you probably did so for the overclocking of the i5 3570k, its good to use a aftermarket cpu fan even with no overclocking because your cpu will run even cooler and the fan will be quieter as well, the cnps10x is a better choice than the zalman cnsp9500a, cooling better, quieter, and costs a little less, you could go with a cheaper monitor thats still good, for psu, a 450w psu of good quality is a better choice than the rosewill stallion, the stallion series of rosewill is ok but a little noisy and they dont handle much stress, the rosewill capstone 450w psu is a better choice, for headset, dont spend so much on one, the hd 201 is good sounding and fairly cheap, i have it myself,

you didnt mention computer case, operating system, keyboard and mouse, storage device, or how your connecting to the internet, wired or wireless? anyways here are 10 links below, all of these parts cost altogether under 900 dollars, way cheaper than your original build -

What type of TV is better, LCD or plasma? Why?

John

Looking to buy a new TV. Price is a factor so LED is out of the equation for me at this time so I am deciding between LCD or plasma. Any input is appreciated. Thanks

Answer
I'm gonna give you the break down from an unbias manner using as many facts as possible with minimal opinions. I think most people are basing their answers off opinions. First off if you are going smaller than 40"s LCD hands down. Why? Because Plasma does not make TVs that small.

Now I will start buy comparing two TV's of similar size and features. Samsung and Panasonic are both leaders of their respected technologies LCD and Plasma. I'll be looking at Samsung 40" LCD (Model: LN40B750, 1080p 240 Hz) and Panasonic 42" Plasma (Model: TC-P42G10, 1080p)


Plasma have near instant refresh rate meaning they do not suffer from motion blur like LCDs do although many LCD have 120 and 240hz processors that help(like the Samsung model I am comparing) it still not as clear at processing fast motions(action movies, video games, sports) as plasmas. Average response time for a Plasma is .001ms where LCD is 2ms

Some people worry about plasmas burning in images but those were the first gen plasmas many years ago nowadays if you have a good name brand plasma(like Panasonic) you would almost have to try and burn an image into the screen because of the use of better gases and anti image retention technology. So unless you plan on leaving you TV on a static image for days you probably will not suffer from burn in.

In terms of viewing. LCD loses some of its picture quality when you view it at an off angle. Plasma you can view it at any angle without losing picture quality. However, since plasma has a glass screen it is more likely to have glare if you are in a room with a lot of light.(The Panasonic model you suggested has a filter to reduce glare but still something you should realize if its going to be in a bright room)

As also stated the plasma has better pic quality...2,000,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio compared to the LCD 150,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio. Plasma is also known to produce better blacks.

Plasmas do use more energy than LCDs. Its not crazy more but it is enough to see some extra dollars on your electric bill a month if watched at the same rate as an LCD. The Panasonic model is still ENERGY STAR Qualified meaning it uses less energy than a regular tube tv but in comparison still uses more than a LCD.

Finally weigh wise the Plasma weighs more than an LCD. That particular plasma weighs 55.2 pounds compared to that particular LCD weighing in at 32.6 pounds

Price for that Plasma is under $900 compared to $1200+ for the LCD.

I would go with the Plasma especially since it is cheaper and has better picture quality; but if weight, energy consumption and a SLIGHT chance of burn in really discourages you go with the LCD. Otherwise generally speaking both are great TVs

Also Cnet a place that reviews electronics have a top 5 HDTVs of the 5 three TVs were Plasmas in 2nd 3rd and 4th place. Number one was an LED which like you said is out of the equation due to pricing and 5th was a LCD
