Thanks for the suggestion... but since im not gaming very much, i dont think it would be very beneficial
My main use for the pc would be video editing,photoshoping and hd playback
 
Looks good but why not the cm haf 932 since it's not that much extra.
Edit: saw your post, why not downgrade to an amd 955 setup if your not really going to be playing games then have quite a bit of cash left in your pocket.

If youre not gaming even a 4850 is surely overkill.

I will only be playing the odd game such as football manager or cod 4... soo not really sure what would be the best gpu to get... i was thinking that if i get the 4850 for now.. then when the new ati cards are realsed i could save up and upgrade to one of them... this setup is pretty much my whole budget,

Well if you're happy going for i7 then do so - 4850 should be fine for football games, COD4 and MW2 when its' out I should think, just not so much at full HD 1900x resolutions.

Otherwise, the build look fine as far as I can see.

In that case get the 4770. Performance similar to the 4850, but much more efficient and cheap.

ok there isnt much difference price wise between the 4770 and 4850 so i think ill just stick to what i decided orginally .. do you know when the new ati cards are going to be realsed and at what price ?
 
Even if you're not gaming much, CPU acceleration will help with Aero in Vista/Win7, and I seem to remember something about Photoshop being able to harness some GPU power when using filters? I may be wrong.

What I'm getting at is a mid range card like a 4770/4850 is going to be a useful addition compared to not having a 3d card at all, so don't completely discount it.
