Ok this is the home stretch, this friday I get my last paycheck that is going towards my build, and I wanna make sure that if I am getting it this weekend that everything is perfect.. Please feel free to make ANY suggestions about it.. somethings im not 100% on is the case and the video card (should i go evga 7900gs, 7950gt 256, or 7950gt 512).. I wanna overclock it decently but nothing extreme. Heres the build:

Case:

Total is from 750-900 depending on tweaks, i wanna keep it as low as possible without sacraficing too much performance for a few measely bucks. I am going to use my current sound card (SB Live! 5.1 before getting a new one)

As ive said before i want this to be a good gaming machine that will last me for about 4 years through college, so being upgradeable (it should be with the ram, the step up program, and the overclocking)

What do you guys think?
 
please any help is appreciated.. This computer is so close i cant wait, any thing you would change or does it look good? Do you think the ram is ok Volts for the Mobo? and do you think the case has enough cooling?
 
I would go for the cheaper video card and wait for the price of the DX10 cards to drop, unless you can afford them now, and spend the extra money to get 2GB of ram.
And by the way I think you should stop bumping your thread...
