Sounds like a great rig. The Antec Super Lanboy always felt kind of flimsy to me, but I love their cases and ps so I can't disagree with it any.

Very nice setup. My only comment is that for OC'ing I would have suggested teh 3200+ just for the 10X multiplier.

YOu could get a 3200 for the 10x multipler. Here is a fan that pushes a bit more air that is still quit.

Get some OCZ Value VX RAM that is linked to above. I prefer Seagate drives, but it doesn't really matter. I don't know much about the DVD-RW you chose, but the NEC is good. If you want to save money you could pribably get this case w/ PSU

A lot of games use PS3 now too so it may be a good idea to get a 6800GT.

i have their original lanboy and it is a nice, light case but i feel i like a full tower like the amg1088 w/ the 450W p/s for the room. just my opinion.
