That's a good setup up, but trust me, later on, you will want a CD-writer. It has become a necessity.
 
Nice setup but if you want to save money, get the Abit IS7-E motherboard. Newegg has it for less than $90 shipped.:)

Click here for said motherboard.:)
 
Do you overclock? I bet you could save a little $$$ by going with a 2.4c or 2.6c and overclocking.
I assume you are going to use the onboard sound...
or did you forget to list it?
 
I agree, save money with an IS7 motherboard, it's very good.

With the money you save, get a combo drive. Lite-Ons combo drive is very nice, and costs $49 at the egg.

Other than that, it's good.
 
I am working on getting a similar setup except with the abit IS7 or IS7-E...think i should get the 2.8c and slighty overclock or go with a 2.4 or 2.6c and really overclock??

I have one of the RAIDMAX mid-tower 10bays, and it has been great. Nice looking case for the price:)
