How´s my new rig?

[Alienwho]

Alright i´ve been out of the computer deal for a solid 2 years but now i´m back. I´m planning on building my new rig and this is what i´ve got so far, tell me how it is and if I stupidly skipped over anything crucial or if this just doesn´t fit, or if there are any good trades. I´ve got this all from newegg.com:

Stands for PCI-Express. It's a new spec for video cards.

Ah thanks. Wow didn´t even know that moved.

Okay so I was thinking is it best to go with a Geforce 6800 or one of the new radeons? What is the better band/buck deal?
