What size monitor do you have and what resolution are you running? What games are you running?

Your system is solid, and should run most recent games well at reasonably high settings up to 1680*1050 or so.

looks fine but one thing....

Where are those 3 fans...u dont want only exhaust.
Preferably u want front/bottom/side intake and the back and top exhaust.
Like that u dont have cool air coming in at all and ur stuff will gradually heat up

to mtyrmom: i have a 17 or 19" and i run at 1024*768 and i play things like crysis warhead and GRID

to silverion77: one in the rear, 2 on the side. all are 80mm fans
my case has no bottom or top slots for fans
hoping to get a CM690 from coolermaster
