Hi there,
I'm looking for some feedback on a specific set of components I'm planning to use. The goal is to handle graphic and web design work, while setting up a NAS to act as a data backup solution.

Intel Core i7 processor with ASUS motherboard and DDR3 RAM
AMD FX X8 8320 BOX processor
8 GB G.SKILL Ripjaws series DDR3 1600MHz memory kit (2x4GB)
1000.0 GB SEAGATE ST1000DM003 SATA3 hard drive, 64MB cache, 7200 RPM—intended for swap space and general utility
GIGABYTE AMD RADEON R7 240 OC graphics card, 2GB DDR3, D-SUB, DVI, HDMI
SAMSUNG SH-S224DB DVD±RW
COOLERMASTER Force 500 MIDI case, USB 3.0, black, no PSU included
700W ANTEC VP700P power supply, ATX v2.3, 120mm fan

I also have a 120GB SSD dedicated to the OS, leaving this HDD specifically for swap and similar tasks.

Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 64-bit, English, OEM, DVD
Norton Antivirus 2015, 1 user, retail

Logitech Z323 speaker system, 2.1, black, retail
Logitech MK270 wireless desktop, black, USB

WORK BACKUPS
Two 1000.0 GB WESTERN DIGITAL Red hard drives, 64MB cache, for the NAS setup
D-LINK DNS-320L NAS enclosure, 2x3.5'' SATA HDD, BitTorrent, G-LAN, USB

D-LINK GO-SW-8G 8-port Gigabit Switch

Thanks in advance,

What’s the max budget we're looking at? Also, how are you planning to pay—if you're using a card, let me know where you're based, which one you're using, and if you're splitting it into installments? Oh, and what kind of software are you running?

Hey there,
Yeah, I’ll be paying by card... up here in San Francisco.
I mainly stick to the usual design and web tools—mostly the Adobe Creative Cloud suite and Corel.

My Budget should be around $3667
