Great price on the board man. Also, I find that this site really helps if you have problems with wattage.

Thank you! I'm guessing that my system's the most powerful slim system?

What else do you need now? The monitor?

Personally, I'd go for a smaller size monitor but still high res. That way you get a high DPI. A bonus is that they are a fair bit cheaper too. For example the BenQ E2200HD is a nice monitor.

That's very tempting! Had a look at BenQ, look awesome, half the price as well!!! So is there any other monitors I should take a look at?

I would suggest using something a bit less bloated than Dreamweaver, but I can't really thing of many good Windows alternatives, except perhaps Aptana. Unless you need the visual mode for editing...

Hmm, don't know that model so I'm not sure. The E2200HD is really nice though. Otherwise, the monitor in my sig (Acer H223HQ) is a good one too.

And I think you are already set on the case. Optical drive doesn't really matter, if you want a high quality one get a Plextor. As far as HDD goes, the Western Digital "Black" series are really fast HDD's. The 640GB is a good example.
