well it seems you know your way to go but here are a little suggestions that would make the build better

get antec 900 or if you can pay more 50$ get haf932 as it is a full tower and you would fit everything easily especially the gtx 275 which u would barely fit in the antec 900 if it you didn't have to remove something to put it in and tha haf 932 has a very great air flow and it is one of the best cases

COOLER MASTER HAF 932 RC-932-KKN1-GP Black Steel ATX Full Tower Computer Case - Retail

i would suggest getting LG L227WTG-PF Black 22" 2ms Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 10000:1DCR with HDCP Support - Retail

it has less features but it has less response time so it would be better

also get an i7 920 D0 stepping make sure to select the D0 stepping as it overclocks higher and it runs cooler

The Antec 900 will house a GTX 275 fine. Samsung monitors are great, but that one is over priced. Get this one instead. It's out of stock right now but it saves you $60 which will allow you to upgrade to the ASUS P6T Deluxe V2. Other than that everything is great, but you're missing the psu.
