March 2013? You better go for hibernation buddy. :)

Seriously, there's no point recommending anything right now, things will definitely change at that time. Better to ask one month prior to your purchase.

Oh boy you are posting this thread too early, if you are planning to buy this rig in March 2013 then you should make a thread in Feb 2013. By then there would be a lot of price fluctuations which will change the config. Rest for now and them make a thread when you are about to buy the rig in 1 month. :)
