getting there!! just a few ?'s

Yea, but if you plan to add/change your video card you'll need a new one but that would be if you get like a 8800 ultra or SLI of 2 8800gtx

:D
It will definitly be ok. Did you by chance see what the Amps are on the 12v+ rail? It will say something like 36A@12v+.
 
awesome, i cant wait to get this thing built....im a little nervous about it not working right though, like drivers n shit :-0
 
ok, i take g0 is better? i thoght about going ahead and buying a better cpu cooler, should i put arctic silver 5 on it? or just put the cooler on without it?
 
unless you already ordered the raptor, the performance gains between that and the WD SE16 drives is so minimal it isnt worth the gigantic price difference. For the price of the raptor you can have twice as much storage with the same speed if not better

Actually, the performance of the Raptor over 7200 RPM drives is not minimal, IMO. To suggest that the Caviar could be faster than the Raptor is absurd. Below is a performance benchmark.

The results of this benchmark are typical. The Raptor smokes 'em, with less power consumption. :)
