I think you're trying to say 500W SPMS or PSU, not UPS.

Here is a basic config or you:-

AMD Athlon II X4 645 @ 5K
Gigabyte GA880-GM USB3 @ 4.8K (AM3+ Socket)
Corsair 1333 MHz 4GB X 1 DDR3 @ 1.25K
Seagate 500 GB SATA @ 3.5K
NZXT Gamma Cabinet @ 2.2K

Intel config:

Core i3 2100 @ 5.6K
Intel DH67BL-B3 @ 5.4K
Rest are same.

Total is around 16K.

What kind of connectivity available with a Full HD monitor?

If we can directly connect a blueray or HD flash player to the monitor?
