Ok guys, ive been planning to get a new computer for a few months already but im just so confused at what parts i should get but im pretty set on geting an i7 though.

Requirements
-I want it to last me a a minimum of 4 years
-Watch HD videos
-Have inputs i might need in the future
-As quiet as it can get.
-Must be i7
-No OC
-6 gigs of ram
-1tb for hdd
-$150 or less for video card

Pretty much. im planning to spend big on the motherboard and processor and cheap out on things that i can upgrade later. My budget will be around 1600.
