This is the order I am about to put through on newegg for a new P4 watercooled 4ghz monster. I just want to get any feedback I can before I place the order to make sure I am getting solid components. I could also use a memory recomendation for this setup as well. Please point any parts I am missing. Thanks

Just one change

I would change that power supply out for a Fortron,Enermax ,or OCZ Powerstream.All around 500watts or better you will need it.

I second that, otherwise it looks like a great system!
 
I agree with all the others..... the only possible weakness is the antec..... get a Fortron or Powerstream.... Enermax noisekillers are good too.
 
Not that antec is a bad company or anything. But the video cards draw more power now. =\ But yeah, the fortron blue storm is a good choice.
