im wanting to know if this is a good build or do i need to change anything? thanks

drop the 8800gts 640mb for the 512mb version as its a better one to go with. I think Nvidia did a dumb thing with making the newer GTS a 512mb version.

I think they did a dumb thing by using the same name.

For the price of that TRIO PSU, I'd ditch it for a Corsair 520W or 550W instead. Shop around, newegg doesn't have the best prices on PSUs, so check clubit.com, buy.com, and zipzoomfly.
