Wow, I was just looking at the video Linus did on the Asrock M8 and decided to check and see how much it was because I really liked it when I first saw it but wondered if the price came down any. Well the price is good AND you get a free 1tb HDD and 120GB SSD. 

 

Amazon has the system available for $650.00 without the extras. http://www.amazon.com/ASRock-M8-Gaming-Barebone-Collaboration/dp/B00FIVBICK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1400077811&sr=8-1&keywords=asrock+m8

 

 

 

 

FIXED SSD is only 120gb

Theres always a way to save money. If you want this particular setup for cheaper than it normally is, now's the time to buy. If you want to buy the cheapest possible hardware, get a different setup.

Is this just for the case?

The most common result of insufficient wattage is a paperweight that looks like a PC

When I open the link it say it's just a 120gb SSD they include?

Still a decent find, though.

Love this case and it will probably be my next build, with a newer z97 motherboard.

True, but the case isn't something you can really get from any other provider. I've looked for really compact cases, and this one is the best one I could find that will still accept a full sized video card.

If you want this form factor, other choices just don't match up.
