Awesome dude. Ive been reading some of your other posts. I think I would want to try and get some stuff close to your specs.

One upgrade to a PC which is always overlooked is the amount of power you give your system. I was running 475W power source to my PC with an I7 920 and an ATI HD5870. 475W was about half the power needed to make my PC run efficiently.Overlooked on my part and the manufacturer... After installing a 800W Corsair power block my frame rates went through the roof and my Intel I7 is flawless. No more FSX CTDs either!!! Giving your PC more Power is the equivilant to more muscle. One word of caution, make sure you calculate correctly the amount of power your system uses, overpowering certain components may damage your harware.
Good luck 8-)
