Looks good. 2 things you may have to consider changing:

- The Zalman isn't all that, what about a Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme or Noctua NH-U12P.
- The 9800GTX+ is a good card, however, Ati is busy slashing prices so you might be better off with a HD4870 for the same price. More performance for the same $$.
