Need advice choosing my first set of quality tools

[roadlesstraveled]

Hey guys,

I'm looking to purchase a couple of my first quality tools and I'm in need of some advice. I'd like to keep this as cheap as possible while still getting quality tools.

In the near future I'm looking to build a workbench and a desk. Also, I currently mod computer cases but I'd like to be able to start from scratch. This is gonna require some new tools as well.

What I have so far:
Cordless drill
Dremel
Soldering iron
A very old Craftsman palm sander
Plenty of screwdrivers, wrenches, pliers, hammers, wire strippers, etc...

What I think I'll need:
Circular Saw
Drill Press?
Router?
Jig Saw?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.

I'm afraid you have to pay for real quality, always buy the best you can afford.
