Been Way To Long!!! Would like input

Hello all!

I am new to the forums here, and have been doing alot of reading and am looking forward to seeing your input. I have decided to go ahead and build my next PC. It will be used mostly for Digital Photo's, Video Editing, DVD Burning, DJ'ing and surfing. After all the reading of posts here and looking around at NewEgg, I have put a components list together.

Case - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16811146025

MB - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16813131180

Graphics Card - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16814130062

PS - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16817104935

CPU - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16819115016

Mem - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16820145098

HD - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16822148136 QTY 2

Optical Drive - http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16827151141

I will be using my 19" LCD, Keyboard and speakers from existing system and I want to keep this system below $900 or even cheaper. My main goal is to have plenty of speed, HD Space and of course upgrade ability for numerous years.

Everything looks good except for the Samsung optical drive...they don't have the best reputation for reliability. Get an equivalent Lite-On SATA burner instead.

Should be fine for mid-range video cards. It wouldn't cut it for a top of the line video card, but you didn't mention gaming as one of your uses for the computer.

The 7600GT recommends a 350W minimum, so you've got a little breathing room. Plus FSP is a solid quality brand.
