I'm not planning on waiting for a Sandy Bridge even though they are great. I am satisfied with what I chose after hours and hours of research, if you see anything that could be better for the same price or less, tell me!!

Also, how long do newegg combos usually last? I think I get my paycheck this week :eek:

Seems good, cept im not sure about the 500GB hard drive thats copy and pasted onto the end of your powersupply, then the same, but 1GB version actually pasted a few lines below that.

Important: Why not buy 2 dual channel kits of $30 ea 2x2GB RAM that is 1600MHZ ...

CAS8 1600MHZ ram for cheaper.. way cheaper. (OCZ Platinum or OCZ special ops for 35 and 30 AR respectively) and also $40 for CAS7 OCZ ram.

I'm using the 1tb drive for storage.

Edit: What will better ram speeds and latencies do? I've read that it helps minimum FPS but I'm not sure.
