Memory I have been told needs to be http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231166 so ill update the list to that.

Power supply is 900W

Cooling I know will be an issue but not a big one until I decide to overclock. Which will not happen until the PC has been running smoothly for a few months.

Tho just in case I plan to leave room for an extra fan. The one I am looking at on Newegg (120mm) can pull ALOT of air (So much air they say it causes noise from turbulence)

For Vista I confirmed it to indeed be 64bit http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16832116488 (Atleast it comes with a media center)
Yep that should do. Just try to keep the temps down on the new rig. Heat is such a pain todeal with. Don't be averse if it needs a little boost to modify the case to pop a big one in on the top of the case to help expell the heat. Or what I used to do, was to leave the side cover off, and place a boxfan to blow all the cool air you need into the case.
