Eh, couple things I noticed.

Newegg has the A8N-SLI Premium for 1$ more.

Video cards...meaning 2x6600GT's? I'd skip that and go with a 6800GT.

If you meant 1 6600GT, stick with it.

Someone else can decide on PSU, I'm no expert.

Otherwise, looks good.

i chose the deluxe over the premium since i'm not sure how the heatpipe in the premium will work in the case i chose (since the mobo is upside down). as for the video cards, the 2 6600GTs don't cost that much more than a single 6800GT and normally outperform it.
