Im not sure how good this graphics card is, but i figured i would try it out and if it isnt that great ill upgrade it down the road. Also, i am going to put windows 7 (64 bit) on it. what do you guys thinks? any suggestions or opinions?

why not just get another 640gb and Raid 0 it and you save 35$ which you can use to buy a better case. And i don't see a video card here, whats your budget on one?

Maybe he doesn't know about RAID or doesn't want to fiddle with it.

As for the graphic card, I suspect he is using onboard, an ATI Radeon HD 4250.

That RAM looks low-grade, I'd recommend this: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231277
Slower speed, but better cooling.
