not bad..   and you do realize that CPU means "CENTRAL PROCESSING UNIT"  right?  not Central Power Unit.

Looks sexy. Although you dont really need a blu ray. And 1TB is highly excessive unless you download a massive amount of videos.

Also depending on your OS 6 gigs can be too much. A 32 bit(x86) OS (windows etc.) can only use 4 gigs of ram, so anything over that is overkill. If you are using a 64 bit though, then 6 is great.

Also as the above stated, CPU is the Central Processing Unit (Processor). The Power Supply is what you are calling the CPU.
