With a bit(a lot) of help from a friend I came up with this. So what you think? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Looks good. The only issue I can see is with the Intel D975XBXLKR motherboard. While it *should* be the latest revision, 3.04, if it's not, it won't have the updated VRM11 voltage support for Core 2 chips. If that's the case, you may want to look at some other motherboards: Abit AB9 Asus P5B Gigabyte 965P-DS3 MSI P956NEO-F Also, Maxtor has had some issues with their hard drives, so you might want to consider Seagate, Western Digital or Samsung.
