as for the case, maybe look at a p180(B). It doesn't have a huge window or big shield in the front, but the ventilation is far superior (as is the build quality)

If you're going to overclock, this is good ram:

Otherwise, everyone loves ValueSelect!

I agree with Juno on the monitor; you're paying too much. As for the hard drive, it's really just a matter of prefence. I'm a seagate fan, but everything works

<edit>
Forgot... as for the vid card, it seems that eVGA is the current croud favorite:

Ditto about the monitor. Also, the speakers are good, but I would try for a set that uses standard bare wire. RCA cables arent ideal if you need to extend the run. Using fatter cables is usually a good idea, and with RCA, you can't increase the diameter of the entire cable - just the extension.

Otherwise looks like a badass system. You're going to love it Good luck building it!

You should wait until your components are sifted through and comments made.
You got PM.

The Seagate with 16MB cache is ok for now. You can always get more later.

The Buffalo Ram is good and should OC farther tha other suggestions as it uses Micron D9 chips, though I'm using that G.Skill and it's fine. I would definitely NOT buy the Rosewill PSU, the higher end Xclio's are pretty good (Same as the TT Toughpowers) but I don't know about that one, with the 8800 video card you really shouldn't be skimping on your PSU (look for Enermax, Seasonic, Silverstone, Corsair, FSP or at least Antec). If you're not going to do some serious OCing then I'd buy a 965 Mobo and save a lot of money. And if you're going to be OCing then you need to pick up a better HSF. Also I'd say take the $70 you've got going to the sound card and put it into the Power Supply, the onboard sound on most high end Mobo's is pretty good these days (as long as it's not AC '97), and you can always add an aftermarket sound card later. If you really dig that case go ahead and get it, and it'll probably be fine, but you could do better.
