How does this build sound?

What's the build for?

Which monitor/resolution are you using?

Are you planning on overclocking? Water-cooling?
 
Basically for a general use computer, along with fps games. want it to be able to play crysis on high 1680x1050 (22incher). Also some photoshop, and just general music playing.
I would like it to last me a good year and a half~2 years before a video card upgrade as well.

I am planning on overclocking, and I do not see water cooling in my future anytime soon.
 
If you are serious with the Crysis on high settings at 1680 x 1050, you will need to do better than 1 x 9800GTX. Since you're getting a SLI mobo, get 2 x 8800GT or 2 x 8800GTS in SLI. This will give you 30+ FPS at that setting. But, if I was you, for only a 22" lcd, I wouldn't bother SLI for just that 1 game such as Crysis. Although you will get another 9800GTX later on, it will be too much for your 22". The LCD res will be a bottleneck. You need to go 24" with 1920 x 1200 to take advantage of those 2 x 9800GTX in SLI. However, 1 x 9800GTX will do good though. You still can go 1680 x 1050 on med-high settings with no AA and AF enabled.
