I plan on using Vista premium 64bit, guess i didn't take that into consideration yet, hoping to get it at a decent price, maybe $130 or so. Is there really a big difference between the 32bit and the 64 bit? besides the whole 4 gig of ram issue?

I think i'll stick with patriot for now, corsair ram is my next choice, but the rebate got me...hope it doesn't end up giving me trouble.

EDIT Oh and yeah, this will be a pure gaming computer/semi family computer >.>!

Everything else seems fine?

EDIT Just found this screen that i might replace the samsung with, its around the same price --> http://www.canadacomputers.com/index.php?do=ShowProduct&cmd=pd&pid=013085&cid=MT.282

not much big dif really between 32 and 64, 32 has more drivers but there coming out with more drivers for 64
 
Everything on your build looks pretty good. Personally I'd rather have G.Skill or Corsair memory, but with the rebate on the Patriot, you can't quite beat it!

Enjoy, and if you have any questions, we'd be glad to help. I'm sure that it will be more than enough computer for your needs :).
