System... purchasing soon. Thoughts?

[import]

i've purchased all the misc crap... monitor, case, kybd, mouse, fans, psu, everything...
left is the actual system, here are my choices:
processor - q6700
mobo - evga 750i ftw
memory - ocz sli 2x2gb
vid card - evga 9800gx2
hdd - dual seagate 250gb's
cooler - true.

truthfully, i would have ordered the true, but im putting it off to see if the black one becomes available.
just wondering if anyone sees anything wrong with that setup.... incompatibilities, whatever.

its a gaming rig, one big sli'ed monitor.
figured i'd get the gx2 over two cards in case i ever want to go quad sli
mild overclock planned... maybe 3.6 if i get ballsy.

There are no incompatibility issues with the above setup, but I do have a couple of nitpicks....

The Q6600 has the same OC threshold as the Q6700 but is $50 cheaper. (You could also OC the Q6600 to Q6700 speeds with no trouble.)

Per our earlier conversation, that RAM isn't going to offer any significant benefits over...

woot.
me = lazy.

... never mind....

Out of curiosity (though it's not really a nitpick), are you planning a RAID0 config with the two Seagates?

Which fan are you pairing with the TRUE? And why are you waiting for the black one?

the q6700 has the 10x, which allows for a lower fsb, in turn making less heat though.. right?
ram... blah, its ram, if its slow, i'll add more. haha. kidding, but ram isn't a major concern, as long as it works.

no raid setup. once is apps/os the other is storage.

i bought the Scythe S-Flex Fan - SFF21F.. thinking i'll do a push through config, pointing up and out.

oh, and im waiting for black because thats just my style... black everything, heh

Not enough to warrant a $50 price premium, IMO. Though, its up to you. If the $50 aint much to you, go for it. Though, you could get a Xigmatek HDT-S1283 cooler with that extra $50 (its actually under $40).
