What will the PC be used for? Preferred colour scheme? Will you overclock? What monitor do you have? If it's low resolution or quality, it will be worth replacing. Also, keyboard and mouse? If you're using a rubber dome keyboard, it might be worth investing in a nice mechanical keyboard.

It will be mostly be used for gaming but sometimes editing. Preferred color scheme would be blue. I will overclock in the future. I have Acer R240HY bidx 23.8-Inch IPS HDMI DVI VGA (1920 x 1080) Widescreen Display. Corsair K70 RGB keyboard and a Corsair Corsair M65 Gaming mouse.

XFire support so you can add a 2nd 390 at any point, if you want. You'll want to upgrade the cooler when you OC the CPU, but you'll probably be able to OC a little with the M9i. SSD for OS and a few games/programs. Good quality gold rated PSU as well, which is nice.
