Keep in mind I've already purchased my XFX 8800GT Superclocked 512MB.

Is everything compatible? How's it look? Any comments or questions because I'm seconds away from hitting "buy".

Thanks!

PS. Any suggestions on 22'' glossy monitors?

no need for the extra fan, the antec 900 has enough fans for cooling
unless you plan on getting 2 graphic cards in the future, you won't need the SLI motherboard
the Asus P5K-E will do just fine
the harddrive you got was made for servers, i would get this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16822148271

other than that, everything looks pretty good

Eh, I figured an extra 4 bucks why not?
And yeah I'm planning on two graphics cards.

And I already ordered so I'm stuck with the server HD :P

That's actually not a problem. A server HDD is designed for heavier use than a standard HDD and will probably last a very long time in a regular computer.

The HDD that RazR linked to was actually designed for use in surveillance systems but it'll work in a normal PC too.

I like your list. A few suggestions I would have made would be to do 2x2GB memory instead of 4x1GB and maybe a better brand? Not sure of the quality of the Patriot brand. That's about it Enjoy your build, let us know how it goes!
