Gents,
I am looking for critique on this build. I want to thank all of you for your suggestions and teaching me some things about the PC world. This is my first build and totals close to $1300, which was my budget. I am also curious as to the best way to find these parts on sale. I am in no hurry to buy so I can spend the time it takes to find them all quite inexpensively. Suggestions on the build and on how to find parts cheaply would be greatly appreciated.

Well here is a good cpu/mobo combo to go with. I would purchase this if I was in the market
Other than that the build looks good
Also found this
Normally I trust MSI but there are very few reviews on it to know.
