Looks good...make sure you get the 550W Truepower II, it's on the Crossfire certified list (not sure if you will ever use Crossfire, but it's nice not to have to upgrade the PSU later on if you wanted to).
http://www.ati.com/technology/crossf...dyourown2.html Note that I don't see any Hiper's on the list.

You left the OS off the list.
XP Home W/SP2 OEM will be fine unless you need some specific feature of XP Pro or want the Media Center Edition. Did you order a CD/DVD drive?

I don't know if you have purchased your e6600 yet or not, but as a notice to everybody, the e6600 is now in stock at Newegg.com as of 10:00pm EST.

Got mine already,
. Now all I'm waiting for is for the P5W DH motherboard to become available.... I swear that this motherboard seems to be in tighter supply than the e6600. The CPU's been available twice already and the motherboard's been missing in action since the CPU came out.
