I need need advice on this build I have been working on for a while

Ok guys I need input on this build again, this time I got a cheaper case but was able to get more RAM, a card-reader, and better gfx card...what do you think ? (also I already have a 300 gb WD SATA HDD so its not included)...btw this is on a $500 budget, and at this point I am at a total of $497 (tax included). I plan on using this pc as a computer animation student this coming year ! also for some gaming ( I play WoW, and plan on picking up COD4 & Crysis)

--->some people have said they don't like the mobo I choose but for my price range I thought it was good, firstly because it have hybrid graphics (can use both the on board graphics in accordance with my pci-e graphics cards, sort of like a primitive SLI)... please any comments will be welcome, since this is my first system build I want it to run smoothly, thank you

ur links are all broken...

I recently built my current rig and paid only $470 ($400 after mail in rebates, but I already had a hard drive and optical drive...). Make sure to take advantage of combo deals and promo codes...I saved a ton like this...

The time to solicit advice is BEFORE you buy, not after.

lol I have not but them yet Geo

Cool I found one for 62 dollars on newegg, also I went with an intel processor Intel Pentium E5200 Wolfdale 2.5GHz

so what do you guys think ?

well a lot of ppl will tell you to definitely not trust raidmax's PSUs (even though I took a gamble and tried one out, and it ended up paying off...). If you have the extra $50, I would prefer the peace of mind from a solid psu...

as for the amount of ram and which OS to use, not too sure man...sorry...hopefully someone that does computer animation can help you out with that...try looking up computer animation websites for help on that...just see what everyone else is using...
