i would get the 160gig samsung sata instead as its $13 dollars more, and i dont know too much about patriot memory but you could get some nice valueram for 140 and not have any noticable performace loss, but either way that is a nice well rounded system.
 
get a gig of pc-3200 value RAM, tone down your case, and use the saved money for a 6800GT. you will have a rig that will KILL the one you are about to order for the same cost.
 
Nothing, just that Antec 0wnz all others 🙂

More seriously, I'd say that the case doesn't really matter all that much, just get one that you think you will like. Looks are good, but I'd also look for nice perks like 1) smooth metal inside, so you don't hurt yourself setting up; 2) enough space so things don't get crowded; 3) removable mobo tray if possible; 4) sliding drive mounts instead of screw-in.

Not sure what kind the Tsunami is. But the Antec Sonata is a very good case, as is the Antec P-160 (my personal favorite).

tsunami has more then enough room inside, no removeable motherboard try though.. coolermaster wavemaster has that if you want the same look and wanna move up in the world. tsunami has drive rails for the optical drives and thumbscrews for the hard drives, tool less pci/agp card.. its good times
 
Tsunami is awsome. I bought one about a week ago. Great paintjob, great airflow, low noise (i dont care what AT said, mines probably giving out about 30-35 db's of noise even with my BFG 6800gt's new cooler). I'd definitally recommend it!
