i would grab an XP-90c instead of the XP-120, this will ensure that your cooler is compatible with any mobo you pick out and most of the time they get about 1c better temps anyway. Maybe consider a Razer Diamondback for the mouse.

Looks good except some minor things, but those are my personal preferences that you can safely ignore.

i agree on the XP-90c instead of XP-120. i personally would take an X850 XT (PE?) over an Ultra, but that's almost preference. either way, you'll have a rocking machine! :up:

If your not getting, or planning on getting SLI, save yourself 50$ and buy an Ultra board instead of the SLI-DR

[IYP]

yeah eventualy imna go sli and that board has sata2 support right?

Where did you see an X2 4800+ for $616?! Monarch has it for $999 and the 4400+ for $619! But still, awesome setup.
