Hey guy's, I've decided its time for me to make a serious stride into Bitcoin mining. I put together a rig list, and was wondering if there are any changes I should make. I have about $1600 to spend on it, and it should be able to run games.  Also, I am wondering what I should do about my school's internet. They turn the internet off every night at 11 and it turns back on at 5. So would investing in an internet source be smart? Also, I have to pay nothing for wattage, since its provided by school. My list is this:

This is my 1st one:
ASUS R9290X 575
AMD FX-6300 Vishera 3.5GHz 118
ASUS M5A97 90
G.SKILL Ripjaws Series 8GB  70
Cooler Master Silent Pro M2 - 720W 114
Fractal Design Define R4 113
WD 1TB Caviar Black 50
Windows 7 64 Bit Home Premium 90
SAMSUNG Black 18X DVD-ROM 17
LED Backlit Keyboard 32
Logitech S120 10
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 5
Acer S220HQLAbd Black 21.5" 119

$1403

With the ASUS R9290X I should be getting around 800 hash.
