Hey, it all looks good from what I see. I would say try getting one of the new Quad Cores for better overall and thermal performance, maybe up the PSU. But I am sure all will be fine.

Looks good though to be honest, when are you planning on building this rig?

Well, it looks good. If you don't plan for the 4870 in Crossfire, then you should be good to go.

Looks great, but you're getting ripped on the Antec 900

So your obviously building a gaming rig?? My two cents, first off, get a 4870 with GDDR5, and secondly, crossfire/sli will only give you about a 30% increase, so i'd take that in heavy consideration. I'd get a single card for now, and if your not happy, you can always buy another card.
