Default New Build Suggestions

Okay, so I'm finally getting a new rig after 5 long years and I'd like to make sure I don't screw something up. I think I've come up with a good list, but it can't hurt to make sure.

Heres what I have

CPU: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115017

Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119137

Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813136043

Psu: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16817153052

Dvd Burner : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827151153

Ram: (already have 2gb of ballistix tracer)

Graphics: (already have an 8800gt 512mb)

Cooler: (already have tuniq tower)


Notes: For the cpu, since im kinda on a tight budget I'm going to keep the q6600. I do a ton of multitasking and video conversion , and I do know that recent batches overclock poorly , but sadly a q6700 would go over my budget and my mom wouldn't give me the extra money for one if I asked.


suggestions appreciated

-Con

Since you already have a cpu heatsink you can get the oem instead.

OMG lol,

Same Case, CPU, Mobo, RAM, and DVD Burner.

For suggestions why not a bigger PSU for future upgrades?

My choices -
