Welcome to the forums! :beer:

I doubt you'll notice or care for the difference in sound quality between the onboard for the P5Q and the $91 card you're ordering. You could pay much less for ram (given its through a rebate, even without rebates there's $40 sets so you could save more there). Otherwise, looks like a nice build :D From your choice of components, looks like you've read through a decent number of threads here on builds :) Might want to consider a 4870 1GB instead if you have a use for the $70 or so you'd save, and the performance difference isn't that huge. But I guess the fanboy in you might say that's not worth it :p

The 900 is pretty damn big, I'd honestly be shocked if it didn't seeing as how it fits in the 300, and the 900 is both taller and wider than the 300 is.

The 260 will fit but it's a tight fit. You have to remove a fan mount to have it in there and you cannot have any harddrives mounted in the upper hd cage.
