I already have an HD5850 so that should take care of the GPU.

I also already have 2x 1TB drives so that should take care of media storage.

I was looking to get an SSD, I saw that a $60 one was on sale at newegg.. not too sure about what specs I should be looking at for an SSD though.

Any build suggestions would be great. I would also prefer going intel on this one.

Although I should probably just wait for sandy bridge and go from there..

I'm not expecting anything stellar from Sandy Bridge. If you can wait, then do, as you may be able to squeeze the upcoming Radeon HD6950 into your budget, depending on what else you want to prioritise.
