Very expensive. All the pricing can quote slightly lesser to save more. But since you are not gonna build yourself then yes you can go ahead and let PC themes build for you.

Buying from tradepac you can get the 3240 still cheaper.
Next is the Kingston Value Ram 8gb they charge you at $94. For $95 you get a gaming ram. So i don't see why....


But if you wanna build yourself you will save up even more from Tradepac instead.

Asrock B75m-dgs + i3-3240 ~ $220
Kingston Value Ram 8gb ~ $78
Logitech mk120 mouse and keyboard ~ $18
Samsung ODD ~ $22

I will suggest you drop i3 and go with G2120. I think the main difference is in the hyper threading feature which i doubt your usage requires any of it.

Seasonic psu comes with 5 years warranty.
