    Get more warranty if you'd like to keep it.

    That is an ideal setup for that system... one that I would configure for myself. :)

    If you get it through a vendor like XoticPC... then you would get both great service/support and a 3 year standard warranty.

    That's my exact same setup, but instead of a BD drive I just got a second HDD.

    That's a nice config :) I'd recommend XoticPC for a lower price.

    This is good advice. I just priced out the exact same setup I got Monday from someplace else and it was around $120 cheaper than I paid and has a way better stock warranty.
