FINAL Spec Check please

[photoshop]

I have put togther the following spec for a rig i will be building soon (which should take me through to 2008 and beyond)

• GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400 800MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit

• Gigabyte GA 965P DS3 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

• Intel Core 2 DUO E6300 "LGA775 Allendale" 1.86GHz (1066FSB)

• LaCie 600Gb Big Disk External USB2 Hard Drive (d2 Model)

• PowerColor ATI Radeon X1950 Pro Extreme SILENT Heatpipe 256MB GDDR3 VIVO HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express)

• Seasonic S12 500W Silent ATX2.0 Power Supply

• Zalman Reserator2

• NEC AD7170A 18x18 DVD±RW Dual Layer LabelFlash ReWriter (Black)

• Logitech DiNovo Desktop Combination

REUSING EXISTING - M-Audio 5.1 Revolution
REUSING EXISTING - Akasa Eclipse 62 case
REUSING EXISTING - 80Gb Maxtor ATA
REUSING EXISTING - 300Gb Maxtor SATA
REUSING EXISTING - 120mm 700rpm SilenX Case fan

The idea is to create a silent pc with good performance to play games and do audio editing aswell as some photoshop and autocad. I watch a lot of movies also and kind of use my pc as a multimedia source.
I might even add a TV Card and a 24" Dell later.

Hoping to overclock the E6300.
The idea is to cool the cpu and gpu using the reserator2 in a loop, the hdd's will be in enclosures to cool them (as they are in now) with 1x 120mm 7v fan cooling the case.

Your probably wondering why the 600gb ext lacie. Well its for all my backups and i like the idea of only turning the hd on when i need to move a descent size of files over and then switch it off which reduces noise.

Your opinions please?

It looks good, you might want to check that the Reserator has fittings for the graphics card or if it just has a universal fitting. I also don't know how fast you'd find the LaCie in use since it is USB2 but if you aren't going to be using it as a main disk then it shouldn't cause any problems.
