Hello everyone, thought i would introduce myself as i am new to the forums here and am in the slow but steady process of piecing together my first PC. i have been lurking here for a short time now, trying to take in as much information i need to know. But it is a daunting task, all the acronyms and tech jargon make my head spin.
I have been mainly looking at what all of you have done with your systems, but paying special attention to what other first time builders have put together. i limited myself to a budget of $1500 (not including the monitors, keyboard, mouse, etc). and so far this is what i came up with...

i guess the main question here is, will this all work together nicely? And also, are there any components i listed i should consider replacing to get the better bang for the buck? in the future i would more then likely overclock, and sli. so another question i have is will this setup leave me room in the future to do just that?
i plan on using this PC for school work, gaming (mainly SC2, fried my laptop playing it. so new PC build.), and just browsing the net. pretty much what the average engineering student would use this comp for.
