(Ok seriously, your PC's base cost was north of $900 while you were keeping the parts count to a bare minimum, why do you say "That's quite a lot of money"? -_-)

What I'm getting: Graphics card, SSD, RAM, USB (yes, like I said, I tend to count all the niche stuff even though the USB flash drive is arguably not even part of the PC), Thermal compound and LED kit.
