Feel free to get two of those video cards and an SLI bridge, isn't necessary and the performance boost won't be too large but would still be nice, considering you haven't hit 2k yet. Case can be whatever too, I just saw that was a nice one and already had fans in it. If you make any changes let us know temmmmmmmmmmm :V.

One thing I forgot,
Socket 775 CPU Installation Clip for 7000 Series (ZM-CS1) $5
need that to make the zalman be able to be used. It'll be tricky getting that muh on but it'll work supreme.

Could refine it but i am lay-z, you know. Apparently Temm isn't buying it yet either, so the list will be OBSOLETE! Good one temm.

If you have the extra money I think you should go up once more and get the E6600, well worth the money. Plus 4MB Cache which will be useful for Vista.
