Ok so.

Change mobo to P5K deluxe

Change power supply to Corsair 520HX or Pc power and cooling 610.

I would change the DVD drive to an LG sata.

For your fan get this

Newegg.com - SilenX IXP-76-18 120mm Case Fan - Retail

Now my question is will I be charged extra for exchanging? and is the difference in my price sufficient enough to cover for your inconvenience?

I did not see an OS, hope you have one to install. Other than that, looks like a great system, I just finished building mine and it screams compared to my old XPS Dell. Well, almost finished, I still have a few things to add and change and then OC it.

i go with Deadpixels build.. noooice. Way under budget... with the saving id get a better razer mouse (copperhead, deathadder, Lachesis)

if you are going to get a mouse like that you have to get the boomslang for nostalgias sake:happy:

Why would you replace the abit x38 with a p5k? The abit board is hot. ITs actually going to be my next board once i get my hands on a pair of cheap 3870s.

Because P5K is better for overclocking and Abit does not make always the greatest stuff.

Meh, my p5k didnt overclock all that great, although it was just the vanilla version. I much prefer my ds3r and 680i boards.
