Alright guys, this is my last thread. I'll be ordering within a day (or two)
If you've been reading my previous threads, this is my first official build.
Since this is my first build, I need to be assured that when I put everything together, it will all be compatible and turn on.
Here are the specs:
Intel Core i7 920
6GB DDR3 triple channel
NVIDIA GTX 260 Core 216 Superclocked
(2) 1 TB HDD's
Coolermaster Cosmos S
Creative SoundBlaster X-FI titanium
Corsair 1000 w PSU
Gigabyte GA-EX58 Mobo
Vista 64 bit
Blu Ray reader
What do you think? I've decided not to get the 4870X2, only because I don't think I need all that power right now. I like Nvidia and eVGA - great service. The GTX 260 is still an incredible card. I can always add another, upgrade, ect.
Here are the links to everything:

Can anyone help me find a CPu cooler that is compatible with socket 1366? i7?
I can't find any, there seems to be only one on newegg with horrible reviews.
I feel pretty confident about everything. The only thing I'm a little weary about is the case. I love the look of the Cosmos S. I know the Antec 1200 is probably the best bet, I just don't like the way it looks. I want this to look good. Is the antec 1200 worth getting over the Cosmos S?
