So Ive got an 8800gt that I would like to use a little longer and a power supply that should work just fine. What do you think of this build?

Seems perfectly fine to me. What power supply do you plan to use for this? Or what is your current power supply? Make sure it's a high-quality one with a rating of at least 500W.
