IMO I don't really like them heat spreaders, I have some OCZ ram with them heatspreaders and they used that crapping rubber stuff or what ever it is between the chips and the heatspreader, plus the sticks with them heatspreaders are so close to each other the heat is just getting trapped there...... Might end up putting a freaking fan near them sticks because they get very hot.....................

Is everything good? Will the PSU be good for two 7800GTXs in SLI if I ever decide to pencil mod the mobo? Should I get a sound card?
 
Well I don't know really, I've never built a gaming PC so I'm not sure how much disk space I'll need. How much space do games usually take up?
 
BF2 takes about 2.3-3Gbs of space. im onyl using about 20GBs of my 80GB hdd. i have about 2000 songs. couple of hundred pics. and couple of games. bf2, cs, css, hl2
 
The point of having a bigger HDD isn't to fill it up all at once. Its to fill it up over the course of a year or so. For example, my 160GB HDD should last me 2 years.
