Just looking to add Blu Ray although and I am also looking to changing the motherboard depending on the final full X38 spec and possible upgrade to a 8800GTX Leviathan

4x OCZ 600w Psu - Why did you get them? Nothing wrong with them but when spending that amount of money, you should have went for a Corsair PSU.
