the psu will be pretty much silent, i have never heard my corsair psu.

change i would make are, change the cooler to the titan fenrir, as good as the eco but without the worry of coolant leaking.

also i'd go for a 1.5gb 580, if you can afford it.

Ok what else could i drop so the price isnt as much but still top notch PC :D

BTW im going to get the PC with a new Hard drive and windows7 Home installed but i do have a 650GB hard drive with windows7pro on it. Its a sata 2 hard drive will the sata 2 harddrive fit into this PC?. You might say drop the Hard if you already have one but i might as well have 2 then got a fair bit of room to install all my stuff. thanks again
