Hello and thanks for looking at my attempt at a build. I have limited money and want a good all around PC that I can also play current games on.
My goal with this is I can eventually upgrade to add a second 8800 for graphics and naturally upgrade as needed.
My main worries are will the power supply be enough? Will it still be enough if I add a second 8800 in SLI later? Am I forgetting anything? Does everything look like it works together. Total price is 731 now, and I really can't go beyond that.

You can very much thank the above post. Because he has just constructed a very good rig at a very good price. Everything there is alot well structured. The only thing I cant see is the Case and the OS. But that is nothing. I very much recommend the above build.

There is also ram. 2gb is not enough. Vista (both 32 and 64 bit) uses 1+gb at any given time, and games can also be ram hogs (Crysis uses 2+gb after a few hours of gameplay).
Wow. I was expecting a few comments not a complete rebuild. I really appreciate it since I have not bought a computer in 4 years so really have no clue.
Yeah, Don't get the 8800 GTS 320,640, or even the 512 which tops both. If you have the money a 9800 GTX is ~$299, 8800 GT is a great card I have the PNY version, got it when they were ~$250 still a good deal then
