Judging from the title of his post, I'd assume not.

 

[IfYouHaveToAsk]

Looks a good system, enjoy!

 

[von_dragon]

so...I guess I made good choices based on the lack of comments?

 

[TonCrafter]

Looks pretty good. Although, if you can swing it why not get another 250gig hdd and go raid 0? Just an idea...

 

[updawg]

Thats a nice system, especially for a non overclocking route! It will provide you excellent performance especially for the price! I second purchasing another 250 gig Hd if you can! Take pictures of your build and post back.
