id say DEFINITELY another gig of ram...

i would've gone 2x1GB there are some extremely cheap sets nowadays.

thats the only thing really - other than that, build looks awesome.

GREAT choice to get the E4300 if you weren't gonna go E6x20 or E6600!

also, you could've grabbed another gig if u went a lil lower on your power supply - definitely don't need all that.

im getting an Ennermax Liberty for my new build, and has all the things i have right now with soon a 8800GTS and its more than enough.

great build overall. enjoy it!

as of tuesday afternoon, still waiting for case, mobo, mem, graphics and hdd.

by the way, on my thermaltake toughpower 650W, on the 24pin mobo connection, not all the 24 connections are wired...

only 23 connections have wires going to it. is this normal on a PSU?

Yes, there is a wire missing on them. Not sure why, but it is normal

can some one show me some tricks as far as cable routing to make it look as nice as possible? My psu is modular, but what about hiding cables and cable management? I have seen pics of computers' cable management sooooooo nice, it looks "wireless"!!!! Does any one know how to do this??
