video card?

Well its kind of hard to say if the build is good or not if we don't know what its for. If its an office/workstation pc, then you would want a quad. If its a videogame pc, then your going to want a gpu, unless you already have one. But its kind of a waste to spend so much cash on a fancy case, mobo, ram, cooler/heatsink. You could cut back on those parts, and save a lot of money to put in a gpu or a stronger cpu.

Looks like an excellent build. I am telling you this judging by what different technitians have said. If you are looking to buy a really good video card, you could get a motherboard for half the price of the one you've got on there, and switch to ddr2 ram. Though ddr3 is quickly becoming popular, you will still have excellent gaming performance.

Who are these technicians?

i have an HD 4770 that i will move over, as well as an optical drive. Yes, not the best card...but I will wait for the HD 4850's to drop to a reasonable price.
the PC will be used primarily for gaming, some internet and productivity.
Fancy? I feel most of what i chose is quality, but not fancy...am i wrong?

Nah, all your stuff is good. I just thought you wanted a gpu, so I was thinking if you cut back on some parts you could use that money to get a gpu, thats all. But since you already have a gpu, thats unnecessary. So, like I said its all quality stuff, and good picks. Sorry for the confusion.
