KaveMan24---your link to the cases gave me all of the Antec cases and not a specific one, do you have a specific one chosen? Antec is normally a safe bet though, make sure it has enough room for your type mobo and especially a big new graphics card. Your optical drive link said it waas $54.99 not 39, I wasnt sure if you knew or cared, just pointing it out because maybe its a deal breaker. Why pay that much for a burner now-a-days when theres good ones cheaper, like another sony http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16827131049 I compared the two and the only difference it seems is the one you linked came with Nero. I'm sure theres more, NewEgg didnt list it though.
About everything else seems fine.
