Looks like a super nice getup, I would only suggest a different case..
My suggestion: Antec 900
Good luck
EDIT:
Flyin, he's in Canada. Newegg doesn't ship there..  |

I think you would be ok. I only run two gigs of ram, and even when gaming I normally don't go over 1.5, But I'm on XP and UNIX. |

Looks great to me. 
(the ram is pretty expensive though, here we can get 2GB of DDR2 800 for $30-40 after rebates) |

The Antec 900 is cool, but I HATE the top...what are all those cubbies for? Loose change?
I call them dust collectors  |
