Looks nice and balanced. 8800gt with stock one slot cooler can be moderately loud at runs hot at the same time. Some versions of 8800gt comes with aftermarket dual slot cooler, which is as quiet as stock g92 8800gts cooler. Not sure about the case. Keep in mind cases that seal in noise also tend to do the same to heat. Also, you didn't list cpu cooler. For best noise/performance ratio, get one with 120mm fan.
Cost: 1150 USD. [No OS, pre built]
And will it be noticeably loud while playing games?
Thanks
Get a different PSU if you want to run those components safely... I wouldn't trust that Raidmax for a second (bad experiences w/ Raidmax PSUs). Otherwise, this looks quite balanced, and game ready (make sure you buy an OS/ have one..). Assuming that it's the stock cooler, it shouldn't be THAT loud, possibly when it's at full load.
