Hey Dan,
Looks good to me. You've got some of the best parts built into it, so you can expect great performance. If you have the means for it I'd say, go get it! I see no issues.

thanks for the advice that it would be a good build.

finally got it built.
took about 3 hours with some expert help. took a little extra time trying to install Windows 7 before figuring out it can't be done.
lots of flashy lights.

run a quick little speed test (count from 1 to 40,000 in basic).
(this is a test we used to do back in the old days. I think we did 1 to 100 then )
old computer speed 46391 milliseconds
new computer speed 37313 milliseconds
no overclocking.

now the hard part... getting all the software from the old computer installed on the new one.
