I have just put together my first build. Here's what I have:

i7 950
ASUS P658XD
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1600
XFX 850W Black Edition PSU
EVGA GeForce GTX 580
Western Digital Caviar Black WD1002FAEX 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/
Antec Sonata II case (old I know, but the money ran out...still has decent air flow though)

I plan on putting another 6GB kit of ram in when I get the cash.

Any thoughts or comments on this build are welcome.

solid system when you can buy the HAF 922 for a case

If I built a system in this price range I would've gotten i5 2500K and p8p67 pro but if you built this when SB wasn't available an 8/10 (-1 for old case, -1 for mobo would've gone with sabertooth personally)
