looks good, but like the previous poster I would go with intel over amd right now. The e8400 is an awesome buy for its performance. Thats what I went with. Good pick on the 8800GT too, I would say that is one of the best bangs for your buck out there right now.

I also agree that the case is a bit overkill. You don't need a 240 dollar case, ever, imo. I got my case pretty cheap and I love it, absolutely best case I have ever had.

You could probably find it elsewhere cheaper.. I don't think I payed that much for it.
