PM'd this to lucifer but thought I'd throw it to the board at large, too.

Here's what I'd put together before you posted. I wasn't expecting feedback quite as specific as you gave. We arrived conveniently at some of the same things and diverged significantly on others. I really know nothing about PSU or mobos, so I didn't have choices for that yet.

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119129
Optical: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827151171
HDD: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148262 I've never had specific space problems, so I skimped here a little.
GPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130380

I already indicated my CPU selection, and I'm pretty positive that your GPU and monitor selections, so I'll be switching to those.

Any other thoughts? Would you leave the mobo and psu as you originally indicated?
