    GPU - current 7900GS until the 79xx comes out.

    The only thing I'm worried about is the PSU, it's proven itself durable however it's only 485w, dual rail @ 32A.

    If I were you I'd go on the safe side and pick up a Corsair 520W or higher BTW, where are you buying this stuff from? If it's ncix, for about 17$ more you could get a antec 900 case which for sure wouldn't cause your mobo to fall off as its got brass standoffs
