Looks good for the most part, the raptors require a good bit of air cooling as they run rpetty hot, ive 2 in a raid 0 config, also pretty prone to failing compared to other drives though WD are good with rma's. Ram and mobo look good and should allow a good overclock on the quad. Gpu wise, might be better waiting on the 4870x2, 4850's are good but do run pretty hot and don't exhaust the air outside of the case, the x2 in some benchmarks has outperformed crossfired 4870's and is prolly gona be avaialble in both 1 gig and 2 gig incarnations so the 1 gig version would probably be closer to the price of dual 4850's.

Make sure the quad is a g0 stepping, they clock much better than the older variations while running cooler.
