First of all, get a real PSU, not one that comes with a case and get one from a reliable manufacturer, have a look here. I'd suggest a Corsair or an Antec one.

Then, drop the 8800GTS 640mb, either get the 8800GT or the 8800GTS 512mb, both of these actually perform better because they are newer technology.

I wouldn't really go with DDR2-1066 RAM, but my opinion doesn't really count for that matter.

Besides that, it isn't bad, maybe a little pricy...

Another me! As said above, I strongly agree with Kilauea!

Seems quite a bit more expensive... Very... $300 went somewhere...

Custom or Prebuilt Custom?

Custom, I've tested many Apeava psu's all clean power, good company, good cases, I've sold about 100 of them, I had 1 bad one, funny enough it was a 680watt that didn't come in a case, heh.

I got the bfg 8800gts 640 cause it was cheaper than the gt by $50 and I'm buying a car and a suit tomorrow so I needed to pinch pennies. ;p Yes there was some software that I didn't list, my bad, windows, bit defender, some other crap.

Not bad though, should be great for environment modeling, 10,000,000+ tri scenes ect...
