This is the build I came up with after going for silence first and power second. Please ask questions if you have them or toss out suggestions if you deem them prudent. I just want some expert advice before I hop on newegg. Thanks to Proximon for his amazing posts and guides.

chip: i7 920 w/ Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 Cooler
mobo: Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD4P
ram: G.Skill 3*2GB DDR3 1600
case: Antec P182 w/ Signature SG650 watt PSU
gpu: Saphire HD4870 1GB w/ Arctic Cooling Accelero S2 Heatsink (no fan)

other: Benq G2400WD monitor, WD 1TB HD, 22x DVD-R, Arctic Silver 5.

Is there anything else I need to build this thing? Been 6 years since I've made a PC. Hopefully the i7 will allow further customization down the road if anything needs upgrading.

Looks great to me. Only thing I can possibly say is consider MX-2 instead of AS-5. Non-Conductive ftw. It won't matter unless you apply the thermal paste incorrectly, but hey its worth noting that AS-5 isn't the only paste out there.
