My Ideal build and setup for my first build

[Northern_Lion]

Ok so this is my ifrst build and i want a fairly future proof build and i would love some good opinions, My budget is not a problem because i have a time frame to have PC built by next winter and i get funds for it by or before then. I don't really want aesthetics in the build right now but if i can eventually go for a nuclear waste green scheme with a black case would be good. Other than that opinions are welcome

Avoid the V300, it had a NAND swap and now its slower.

Are you going to use that optical drive or are you just planning to use it for installing windows? If so, ditch it and save up.

Also avoid the super nova G, stick with the super nova G2.

I need the optical drive because i have tons of music on CD i would like to put on my new computer.

V300? i don't see this in my build

Like i said money is no issue because i have a time frame instead of a budget. I am just about graduate high school, so i don't have too many things to pay monthly.

Also i like the optical drive because i love CDs and will continue buy them
