That's about it, tell me what you think.
 
Looks good, I would drop the sound card, and get a better graphics card, you have a great setup that will be limited by the graphics card.
 
Cool! Any idea on case fans? Also creative makes the best sound cards and I would get a SATA Hard drive instead of ide for better performance
 
your not going to be able to play the new games out at good settings with that card

get a 6800ultra/gt, 6600gt, or x800xl
