OK - your going rather large on the PS (planning on crossfire in the future?) - but stay away from Thermaltake.

Look into this one instead.

BFG makes a great PS - VERY solid, good with spikey power, and you can't beat a lifetime warranty - especially at 120 bucks cheaper. I use a 1000W in my machine and LOVE it!

I take it the 80G drive is for the OS, 300G for games? Is 300Gb's enough? Your spending money on the "speed" factor - but your probably not going to get your money's worth when you compare the limited size. You may want to consider a bigger drive - because 300Gb's won't hold that much nowadays....

I would be complaining over not getting OEM pricing on the OS since your building a complete system - but they dont offer OEM for single users looks like. Bummer.

All in all some great choices there. Keep an eye on temps once you start loading her down more. Have fun!
