First off, thanks in advance for the help and any advice. This is my first time not going the pre-built route and my last pc was stolen. I did attempt on my own to put something together for my cousin to go over, but hes tied up and cant get around to it. It came out to about $450 and I'd like to get the price lower if i can. I'm sure its f'ed up but I wouldn't mind knowing where I went wrong. Also, the monitor I have is a Acer X221W if that matters.
