So I've tried to do the best combo deals I could find. That's why most of what I have included in this build are combo deals. Total came out to be $885 with about $80 in rebates still.

I'm looking for suggestions to better my build or change it up. I'm planning on adding a second GTX 460 card in a couple of months, so that's why I have it SLI capable. Any help to improve this build would be appreciated!

You have a category of SSD with a 1 TB HDD listed.

I have no personal experience with LITE-ON but for some reason I have an aversion to them, I'd look at a Sony/LG/Samsung DVD-RW drive if I were you (expect the same price or +/- $2)

The PSU is overkill for a 460 but its a good PSU and your overall budget of 885 before MIR is pretty good, I don't really see where lowering the PSU would get you any better items, so good job.

If I were you I'd look into an Antec 900 Two. Its better quality and has nice features like cable management etc. Just my 2c

Overall nothing stands out as anything less than exceptional.

I would look into the H.A.F. line of cases or some other cooler masters, they have some very nice choices.
