I'm sure alot of this stuff may not match up very well, but that's why I'm asking for suggestions. The tower is overkill but I just threw it in there. What changes if any should be made??

Here we go again....

Nice looking array of parts.
I was a bit taken aback to see a Thermaltake part, but then saw it's the Big Typhoon HSF, which actually works (I have one myself).

Naturally, the first thing you will do is shitcan the PSU bundled with the case.

So what power supply will you actually be getting?

Why do you need a DVD ROM drive when you have a burner?

Oh, you always ask that.

Here, I'll add a rhetorical question of my own...
Why does no one ever take my advice and get the Patriot RAM?

I'll add my own rhetorical question. What about an Antec PSU? I've got all these Antec t-shirts lying around.:lol:

# of watts doesn't mean decent.

Damn, they actually put "decent" psu's in their cases now. I remember when cases had 250W donkey-dookie that squeals like a girl when it sees all the parts it's gotta run.
You missed the whole joke.:(

my bad, but I really didn't know much about 12v rails until this weekend. Now, I can help another out if they're ever in need of a good psu. Thanks guys.
