Any suggestions for new computer

Good pick on the case, they look real nice 🙂 Everything looks in order, except the PSU. I would look into the Corsair HX520W if your planning SLi on the 7900GTO. If not, then look at the 460W Enhance ENP or Sytrin Nextherm.

Ya, probably not going to do SLI. I just figured that I the 600W would last past this computer, unless the power requirements go up by a lot in the future. Also, about that corsair, I've had bad experiences with modular PSU's in the past and I'd rather not deal with them again unless its proven to be stable.
 
If you were thinking about a single card DX10 setup in the future, I highly recommend the Corsair. Yes, it's proven stable, very, very, stable.
 
I love it when people start their new rig with a LL PC-7B +2. It shows that you are a person after my heart. Really super choice.
Having that C2D Processor makes up for another good start. I would give a 9.5 rating overall. A 10 rating would be with a Seasonic S-12 600W PSU. You've done your homework, good luck building!

Why would you say take a S12 600W over the Corsair? The Corsair is made by the same people, with the same quality (pretty much a rebadged M12), has a longer warrantee, modular cables, and a larger 12V rail. I don't see why a S12 would be smarter. And yes, Jonny reviewed it.

Ok, another question I have is that do any of you see a compatability issue with the case and the parts? Will the CPU fan,PSU and everything fit properly in this case? It seems like a pretty compact mid tower and this may be a little tight.
