I'm buying all of this from newegg.

So what do you think?

All fine but in place of that 1x250GBHDD you should buy 2x250GB HDD. ;)

Owyns

That's I'm doing. If you look closely, it says (x2) next to [HDD].

2GB, bigger HDD, better speakers, bigger monitor. What's taking the E82/300 so damn long....X360PS3AMD05

Hes spending $1700,he might aswell spend the extra $100 on more ram imo.In my experience you'll find a fairly modest but very noticeable performance increase in going from 2-4gig.

better to get 1 500gb hd than 2x 250gb imo. RAID really doesnt help with gaming.

also, 4gb is good, dont go with 2gb as someone above mentioned. for the PSU, I personally have that gameXstream (on my other pc) and I would NOT recommend it. There was a bad batch with faulty fan controllers, all of them really loud. You would do better with a corsair psu.
