Well, the build looks pretty good. But there are a few things i would change. The first is that powersupply. Coolermaster real power pro's are tier 4 If I remeber correctly. Buy this psu. Same price, Much better quality/stable power. And its tier 1.

I know its "Crossfire edition" but the only thing that means is that it has 8 pin pcie connecters. Which is what the 9800gtx2 uses.

DDR 1200? Unless you are going to do some extreme overclocking(Which you cant to anyways withought some water cooling), it would be better to go with 8GB of ddr2 800! thats right 8GB! It would cost you same amount of money. Of course you would have to go 64bit, but its def. better that 2gb of ddr2 1200.

One more thing, you do know that your dvd drive is PATA? Why not go SATA, it helps hide wires better, and is the same price.

Thanks for the tips. I checked a few hours ago and say it was PATA so i am getting the SATA version.

About the RAM, is 8gig of DDR2-800 rly better then the 4gig of 1200? (woops, the list must say i am only getting 1 kit of that 1200 ram, im actully getting 2)

Unless you are going to be doing so hardcore overclocking, yes.
