Nice picks. I always liked building my own to my specs as well. For abt $1000 you got a first rate rig to be proud of (just have to build it)
Good luck with the build

Hi DarkNovaGundam......
i'd shuffle a few parts around....
CPU..... E8400
MOBO.... MSI P45
PSU...... PCP&C 610W & then buy a separate case
i think this may cost a little more, but its a better build......

I'll take a look at those parts, I need to choose a different Motherboard anyways as the one I chose doesn't support the GFX card O.O
