    Nice build...

    ive always been a fan of that case, really nice looking.

    only thing i might change is the memory, Crucial or Corsair would be my memory of choice. Its up to you though.

    WAIT! lol What about the PSU? ASUS is the PSU guru though, id see what he's got to say...IMO an OCZ or Corsair, and if u plan on going SLI then make sure the PSU can handle 2 of those 8800GTS.

    Give me a link on memory within similar price, and I'll go with that.

    Remember, the GTS does not require two 6 pin power connectors. ;) But, give me a better PSU and I'll change what I have.

    Thanks for the input. :)

    Oooo i didnt see the PSU in ur list lol, not used to CORSAIR having PSUs...

    Ive got a Thermaltake PSU, a low end one; only cost me $40 and its running a HIGHLY OC'd system (check my sig) and it has run perfectly fine for almost a year. This one should be great.

    this memory is a bit faster than the other kingston but the same price: confused http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820134125
    AND its SLI Certified :major

    some more of the same stuff but it runs with a slightly lower voltage:

    if you arent gonna bother with overclocking then either of those kits will do fine regardless of the voltages

    GL with the build, looks like its gonna be a nice one
