WOW, no comments, 35 views but no comments. I'm not even asking a question, so there is no reason people can't just leave a comment on what they think about my future system, or anything I could do to make it better or cost less.

Well its just sort of a lopsided build and on top of that there just really isn't much to say.

It will look fine, I dont like the case.. but I really dont like any case with plastic.

And the PSU, swap it over to like an OCZ gamexstream, thermaltake PSU's are ok, they just aren't that great though. Definitely get a 700w at least. Gives you a little bit of headroom for more drivers later or whatnot.

Most people here are intel people..

If you dont have that 160gb hdd get a 750gb 7200.11 seagate SATA 32mb cache hdd. It will be just as fast if not faster than your raptor, and gives you lots of space for about $100.
