new system (e8400+4850)

I plan on buyin a new pc in about 2 weeks, and I was wondering this all looked okay. Does it look like everything will fit together nicely? I think the heat sink will fit, but I have to check measurements again. total cost to have it shipped is $850 ATM. it will probably change before i buy it, parts might go out of stock etc.

Thanks for the advice. Will that XIGMATEK HDT fit in the case? I'm also wondering if the 4850 will make things difficult since its such a long card.

I have that case myself down in the basement, youll be just fine. You might wanna take off its side panel vent though because that is going to get into the way or most cpu coolers. It doesn't really help anyways.

For $5 more why not go for the SE16 caviar here. You get an extra 140gb and it is quite a bit faster than my 250gb 7200.10.

i went w/ that harddrive. Parts should be here by Monday

I ordered an E8400 and stock fan. and I got this case instead. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119106. I expect to be able to run most games very well @ maxed graphics (except crysis ). I am wondering if I should stick with XP 32 bit or vista 64-bit. Also, I'm wondering about maybe installing both on the 640mb hard drive. (dual boot)?

Have fun building it then mate! And that case looks like it will come with a few helpful extras.
