More about : upgrades prefer
Drives must have really changed I checked newegg for that harddrive and it was $20 more. I would really suggest going to the WD Caviar Black. It is $25 more but you are getting a 5yr vs a 2 yr warranty. What is more important than the integrity of the hard drive?

Do you intend to overclock? I don't see a CPU cooler included.
I think you are pushing it with only a 430watt power supply. I would get at least a 500watt and 600-650 if you intend to overclock.

Alot of folks like the Corsair power supply but the Antec is good too. You can probably get away with the 430W Antec but Tom's suggest a 500W supply
