Well, Weezle..... The guts of your future pc sound alright, great choice for cpu, but your not going to be happy with that case and psu. Manily the psu. As we all know invidia pcix cards are power hungry and that generic psu will not cut the mustard. I would suggest looking into a silverstone, or ocz psu. SVC.com has some great deals on the silverstone's right now. As for the case, well, thats a little much for a steel case especially not being tool-less design. Collermaster has some cases in that price range or a little more if your dead set on steel. ie..centurion5. They are tool-less and look pretty good. There are so many options for cases though so take your time and choose something that looks good and user friendly. If you are planning on overclocking!!!!! You will be in the case frequently resetting c-mos, last minute cable moving, and securing, etc....

Why not do it? You've nothing to lose if you do it carefully... as long as you're sure that it'll flash.

By the way, do NOT flash while card is overclocked... well, if you're doing it with a floppy I guess it will already be at stock clocks.

Good luck.

P.S. If you're on PCI-e, then I don't think it flashes. There's a way to check with ATI Tool I believe. Go here and it'll explain how to check:
