My new computer build

[pOwErEd By NOS]

Well my current computer (OCed 2400+mobile) decided to die on me yesterday so I am moving forward with a new build. I am pretty set on everything I just have a few small questions and wanted to see what people thought.

Lian Li V COOL PC-V1200B plus BlackCase $250.00 (Expensive but I love it.)
SAMSUNG SpinPoint P Series SP2514N 250GB 7200 RPM $106.00 (Quiet and cool.)
ASUS A8N-SLI Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard $133.00 (Is this the best MB for me. I plan to OC my x2 3800+ about 25% and am getting memory that doesn't need 3volts. That is why I chose it over the DFI.)
eVGA 256-P2-N517-AX Geforce 7800GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card $369.00 (A bit more expensive than the others but it is already OCed out of the box. Does it have a lifetime warranty or should I go with a BFG card?)
SeaSonic S12-500 ATX12V 500W Power Supply $129.00 (Plenty of power and its fairly silent and efficient. Or is the 430W version powerful enough? Is it SLI compliant?)
Thermaltake CL-P0114 120mm Cooling Fan/Heatsink $44.99 (Best cost/performance air cooling solution as far as I have read.)
2xPatriot 1GB 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) $119.16 (Is 2GB overkill? I game a bit and this machine will be folding 24*7. I am not going to overclock crazy so I don't need awesome memory. Would 2x512MB be enough?)
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ 1GHz FSB $329.00
Subtotal: $1,599.31

I will get some optical drive. I haven't decided yet. I know its a lot of questions. But if you have an opinion I would like to hear it. Also I was thinking about watercooling a few months down the road. Is this a good motherboard/case for that? I will probably use the new Swiftech Storm kit. Thank you in advance.

Looks good. Definetly go with the 2 gigs ram. That is a must. Everything will run smoother and load faster with the extra ram. Post pics when you build it. Good luck.

Looks excellent to me. I'd go with the NEC 3540A optical-wise.

The case is definitely way too expensive IMO. I cannot justify spending that much on a case. If you 2want to get it that is fine, but I would definitely put cheaper cases into consideration.

I do not recommend that board at all because of a lot of its problems. I would suggest just getting a EPoX 9NPA+Ultra. It is the second best overclocker according to Anandtech and for the price it is at it can't be beat.

The eVGA card is a good choice and I do believe it has a lifetime warranty.

I wouldn't buy the Seasonic PSU from newegg. You can even get the S12-600 other places for that price. If the price difference between the 500w and 600w is small I would get the 600w. If it is large just get the 500w since it will be more then enough.

I don't know anything about the particular RAM you have, but I know that the Crucial Value RAM overclocks well. It is also pretty cheap. You can check out the memory buying guide in the memory forum for more recommendations.

I would also recommend the NEC 3540A.

The only other problem with your setup, besides some of the other responses suggesting other choices, is the choice of a hard drive. You see, that hard drive is a PATA hard drive, not an SATA hard drive. And though the nForce4 chipset natively supports four SATA II hard drives and two PATA channels (two PATA drives per channel), why should you choose a legacy-interface hard drive on a completely new build, especially if it's going to be your boot/system drive?
