so i think im gonna pretty much go with this build i am trying to spend around 1000 dollars so this seems like a good set up if they added up the components prices right(http://img52.imageshack.us/img52/6158/newbitmapimagepy.png[/url]). i am wondering what u think and if i should use any different parts. i was also wondering if the hard drive is a good one. like should i get a smaller faster internal and a bigger external one for faster gaming speeds or something. also what cooling system should i get is the ones that come with the case and parts sufficent should i water cool this system. should i buy a better fans for the video card then the one it comes with . your knowlagable advice helps thanks .


Additional Details
Also should i get a better video card then this one for better graphics i want to play crisis on very high hd on my samsung 27 inch lcd monitor with good frame per second. and i would rather get one good graphics card that can play all the current games and buy another when the games demand better graphics. prefreblly then buying 2 to start with suggestions??

Some good values there.
Every thing should slide nicely into your SB build when you get around to it.

The only item that leaves a question in my mind is the PSU. I could not find any independent reviews that say it's worth the $130 price (or even $105) and that it can do what the label says it can - put out a reliable 1000watts of power.
The NewEgg customer comments are mostly positivie (above 80% 4&5 eggs) but a lot of them give 5 eggs if they like the way it looks. And most of them probably have systems that don't need even a 600W PSU. Your option might be to find an excellent 750w/850w PSU that is known through review sites like JonnyGuru or HardwareSecrets to be superior product.
