What's this?

The rest seems fine, shouldn't have any compatibility issue.

though I would change that RAM to OCZ Platinum XTC or Geil PC6400C4.

And change that PSU for a Corsair 520 or 620W / Seasonic / Tagan / OCZ

Not sure about the case but if it's big enough to fit the 8800 then it should be fine, otherwise the popular ones around here are Lian Li PC7 / Akasa Eclipse / Antec P180 / Antec 900.
 
xerox xm3-19w
is the Monitors

an the Antec P180 B lookling really good, just worryed about the 8800gts now

Xerox - I was wondering if you were overclocking a photocopier there! (ideas... :D )

Anyway, on with the spec.

Mobo - Get the Asus P5N 650 SLi, much cheaper with all the good features of the 680i boards and none of the carp ones.

CPU - Good, but the e4300 is cheaper and will (probably) get to 3GHz if you fancy some clocking fun :D

RAM - Just get the cheapest pc6400 and leave it at stock, IMHO

GFX - 8800 GTS 320MB, perfect

PSU - Corsair (520W or 620W), Seasonic (600W) or equivalent Enermax PSU are the ones I'd trust with that rig.

Case - Listen to steve258

HD - looks good. Samsung and Seagate are also good.
 
Seasonic S12 600W Silent ATX2.0
Enermax Liberty 620W ELT620AWT ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant
Enermax Noisetaker 600W EG701AX-VE(W) SFMA ATX2.0 SLI Compliant
Corsair HX 620W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU(top of my list)


only thing I'm worried about the Length of the cable, coz of the case.

antec p180 black
asus p5n32-sli se deluxe
intel c2d E6600
BFG 8800GTX 320mb
Maxtor Diamondmax 21 320GB
ocz 2gb pc2-6400 revision 2xtc

just the psu i need to choose now...
 
The Corsair is very good (it is made by Seasonic - but with higher rated components, and has the 5 year warranty). However I will recommend the Enermax's from personal experience.

Seasonic reaches, but the 4 pin adaptor has to go over my 8800 GTS rather than round (if that is an issue, consider a PC-7 or an Akasa Eclipse).

PSU wise, you cannot go wrong with the Corsair or Seasonic ones. I have a Seasonic M12 600W and its great and quiet.

BTW, I assume you mean the 8800 GTS 320MB!
