Compatibility issues w/high end gaming rig?

[krashx6]

Does anyone see anything that will clash? Will be using this system to play games and edit movies. Went with a 680i mobo so i could have something decent for the future. Went with DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) for some decent ram. Gotta stay with the 8800GTX video. Hopefully ram will be enough. Just hope this rig will be stable.

The e6700 isn't worth the $200 extra over the e6600 especially if overclocking, which I assume you're doing with that RAM.

I'd look at these over an OCZ PSU
Corsair
Seasonic
PC P&C
Silverstone

"Went with a 680i mobo so i could have something decent for the future."
If you're talking about SLIing previous gen video cards instead of buying 1 new next gen to future proof, it's pointless. But if you're set on that 680i thing then go for it.

what would u recommend for a $250~ mobo then if not the 680i, only thing that looked pretty good to me was the badaxe2.

and im still throwing the e6600 over e6700 around...
