You ordered first and asked later. Too bad.

You should have ordered a 640GB HDD. Those are way faster than the 500GB.

With 2x2GB you can't use Triple Channel. That's going to hurt performance, but it's not that bad. Are you sure that RAM is compatible with X58?

What kind of power supply did you get?

Why would you ask how good your build is after you already bought the parts? Ask first, then buy. If you are really looking for advice on parts and are going to change what you use based on the feedback you get here, you have thrown away a lot of money for return shipping and restocking fees.

Depending on the DDR3's voltage you might kill your i7 with it.
