Ordering gaming rig soon input needed

I'm going to order this in a couple weeks would like some input. I prefer ordering pre-built computers so i'm ordering it from cyberpowerpc.com. I'm sure I could get it a couple hundred $ cheaper if I built it myself but not interrested in that. I've never been one to overclock before but wouldn't mind trying it with this. How does everything look?


Case: Coolermaster stacker 830
CPU: E6600
DVD: nec 7170A
CPU fan: coolermaster liquid cpu cooling fan
HD: 320gb sata
MB: evga 680i
Memory: 2gb Cosair xms2 extreme (getting incase I decide to overclock)
OS: winxp home with vista upgrade
PSU: Enermax noisetaker 600w

Parts I already have

Monitors
8800gtx
X meridian sound card

Left couple small things off that don't really matter, after shipping it comes to 1805$

Unsure about the cpu fan they only have two choices either the coolermaster or Intel LGA775. Which one would you get? I picked this motherboard so maybe in the future I can just get a new cpu instead of a whole new computer.
 
Sounds fun! I would just make sure that company has good support in case something should go wrong in the first year. You don't want to be stuck with out a PC in a crappy RMA situation.
 
Are there any motherboards coming out soon that will allow me to upgrade only cpu later on if I want to?

Which mobo should I get the EVGA 680i or Asus 680i
