You paying for that? Who needs a 42" LCD anyways?

PSU is overkill. A 650W Corsair or OCZ should be enough.

Anyone who's a serious movie buff needs a 42"! And it should be good for games

Yes, I'm paying for it! And the PSU stays, who knows I might just need the power in the future.

I would spend more money on a better TV, like a 1080p one by Sharp... That LCD seems somewhat pricey. It seems to be ranging from $1800-4200 (makes no sense to me) on Froogle.

Man, you always think beer.

In my mind, I don't see a Ultimate PC connected to a TV. Just doesn't make sense to me...

Well, Google says your LG monitor is a HDTV.

Plus, having a 42" screen with a 1366x768 resolution blows.
