    What blows is that no matter what you build it will still be outfitted with Windows.

    It took a bit longer then I expected but I finally got everything to getter and ordered a computer. And for those of you that are interested heres the final setup:

    Intel Core 2 Duo E4300 1.8GHz Socket LGA775, 2MB, BOXED w/fan

    Gainward GeForce 8800GTS 320MB GDDR3, PCI-Express, BP8800GTS-320M-TV-DD"

    Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3, P965, Socket-775, ATX, SATAII, GbLAN, DDR2, 1xPCI-Ex16

    Corsair TWIN2X 5400 DDR2, 2048MB PC5400 Kit w/two matched CM2X1024-5400C4 Dimm's

    Hiper Type-R 530W black, 2 fans, 18db, 4xSATA, ATX/BTX, 2xPCI-E, 20/24pin

    Samsung DVD-writer SH-S183A SATA Black OEM

    Samsung SpinPoint T166 400GB SATA2 16MB 7200RPM

    ANTEC MIDITOWER NINE HUNDRED ULTIMATE GAMER CASE

    and a few replies:
    @tlord
    Why? there will always be newer and better things just around the corner, so you will probably end up waiting for ever.

    @orygun
    Well no.... It will not be outfitted with anything but I'll probably install vista and ubuntu.

    @amaso20005
    ???

    And for the rest I pretty much took all of your advice.

    Excellent choice, I picked up one last week and so far I love it It has the perfect amount of room and excellent cooling. There's only two things I don't like about it. 1. The fans are kinda loud even on the "Low" setting, 2. the side panels are fairly thin..... One thing you may want to do is keep the case off the floor if possible cause the two 120mm intake fans will pull in a lot of dust before you know it. Other then that it's a good choice
