well the gfx card is a waste of cash, if your not gonna attach 3 monitors to it, you may aswell just go for a 1 gig version for way less cash, then spend that on a better case and cooling. i7's are known to run hot as do the ati cards so good air flow is essential. the hdd is a bit naff. you can get a better 1tb for the same money preferably a 2 platter 1. and no mention of a psu... * +

the three items at the bottom are for something else. i'm not going to put a hitachi deskstar in a gaming rig! * +

theres nothing wrong with the ram or the motherboard well apart from the limiting space on the board that suppors tri-sli/Xfire there is no way to fit 3 dual slot cards on it. but as you only want 1 card then it will do fine. but my remarks about the gfx card still stand. * +
