Out of interest, where are you picking up the 1900XT/DS3 at that price from, or are you not including VAT from OC?

I'm building a practicely identical rig, except I'm going for the XMS2 800 instead of the GeIL.

seem fine but i would think a 500w psu from antec , enermax would suffice..

otherwise all good
