Here is the link to the parts, its in a newegg wishlist

Im looking around for a lighter case, maybe same speed RAM just different company, and different psu

what do you guys think?

I also planned it on being around 2000 so if you guys think I should add anything please say
 
i dont get why people keep getting the 9500... you only going to get it then oc the cpu just to come back and ask why are my temps so hot. for the same price you can get alot better.

well while you might not agree with the harddrives this is what i would do...

drop the raptor and then pick up (2)160gig seagates with perp. for raid 0. then use just one seagate 320gig perp.
 
the RAM you suggested was actually my second choice and about the mobo, i most likely wont change that especially sine you really didnt tell me why mine is worse. Also the reviews for the intel bad axe 2 are a lot better. Feel free to give me reasons why to switch

About the PSU, yea i kinda jsut chose one. I need to learn about them more. I have learned a lot about the other parts but havent really worried about the psu
 
1) the quad gt is cheaper then the xbx2
2) high fsb for ocing
3) overall better board, despite the slow bios updates

still the mobo is a choice, your just getting more with the quad gt over the xbx2.
