So im finally done building my first desktop, im glad its over, racked my brain and the internet, just need to wait till it all gets here and put it together.

i5-2500k... $220
gigabyte ga-z68ap-d3... $80
msi twin frozr iii 560 ti 448... $220 http://img.tomshardware.com/forum/ [...] .gif(after rebate and minus $40 instant credit card approval on amazon)
ocz modxstream-pro 600w... $50 (free $15 new egg gift card)
optiarc cd/dvd burner... bundle/free with power supply
coolermaster 212+... $20
kingston hyperx 2x4gb 1600mhz... $30
patriot pyro 120gb ssd $95 (after the $15 new egg gift card)
samsung s23a550h... $150
$865... not bad http://img.tomshardware.com/forum/ [...] s/love.gif

Now all im gonna need is a wireless/bluetooth keyboard and mouse, dont worry, i got an old dell k/m combo for the meantime.

So what do i need to make my system compatible with bluetooth/wireless?
Any hot deals on the combo?

Whatever you get make sure you get a wireless dongle with it.
Keep an eye on the blutooth stuff as they usually dont include one thinking that since its blutooth that you have one built in (which you don't).
You can buy a seperate BT adaper if you wish but it will only work with BT devices (which many wireless keybd/mice combo's are not).

yes bluetooth and wireless are both different, u could have bought a better motherboard with bluetooth included such as this http://www.novatech.co.uk/products [...] vgen3.html

 

or u can get this http://www.novatech.co.uk/products [...] /m316.html and attach this http://www.novatech.co.uk/products [...] sb-m2.html into one of the USB ports(probably the internal one) or/and this for wireless http://www.novatech.co.uk/products [...] u300m.html

 

if u just want wireless u can just get this http://www.novatech.co.uk/products [...] -npci.html

 

EDIT: and i forgot the keyboard and the mouse, here are some cheapish(?) ones:
