I've just built a new i7 system, and I decided to wait 6 months+ before putting an SSD in, as prices will fall and the drives will improve. But if you don't like adding things later, I think SSDs are worth getting - certainly when looking at the spec (& therefore price) of your intended system.

I bought cheaper corsair ram, and the cheaper asus MB, cheaper i7, and I don't suppose you could notice the difference, so if you need to think about money I'd save in those areas. If you don't need to save money (= why start this thread), of course get an SSD, and make it big.
What cpu cooler are you planning on?
