I am planning on building a system. This is what I am planning to buy for it. I am already a little beyond my budget, so I only need suggestions that are cheaper to slightly more expensive ($10 max).
Thanks in Advance! Here it is (copy and pasted from Tiger Direct)

One thing I hope to do in the not too distant future is to put in another GeForce 9600GT. I could do that with this build, right?
Also, I already have a 250 GB IDE HD from my old computer.
Suggestions, feedback, concerns, anything I did not include (already have XP for the OS).
