here is the PC I'm going to be building soon:
core 2 duo e6700
eVGA 122-CK-NF68-AR Motherboard
geforce 8800GTX
2GB RAM
1-3 Hard Drives, haven't decided on the HD or configuration yet
SOUND BLASTER XFi Fatal1ty FPS
what I need help with is finding a reasonably priced power supply, case with good cooling, and CPU cooling. by reasonably priced I mean quality mid-range stuff that isn't too expensive
a few things to consider is that I plan on overclocking. I want to OC my CPU, GPU, and Memory. In a few months I plan to upgrade to 4GB RAM, and much later down the road I'll buy a 2nd 8800GTX and run SLI...so I definitely want to buy something now that will be ready to OC and be capable of handling the upgrades
obviously the case will need enough room for 2 PCIE cards, and room for up to 3 HDs. heat building up is a concern of mine with OCing and the planned upgrades, and I'm not sure how much difference the case heat will be with 3 HDs as opposed to 1...but I do want a case with decent cooling/ventilation
for the PSU I was looking at the PC Power & Cooling Silencer 610, but I'm not sure how will it handle overclocking or the inevitable expansion
