My tentative new computer parts list

robotech_masterHere is what I'm tentatively planning to get for my new gaming machine, direct from the NewEgg wishlist page.
Not on the list are a case—the one I'd been planning on doubled in price between last time I looked at it and now, and I haven't found a new one yet; hoping for something in the $30 range—and a hard drive, as I'm transplanting the 80 gig drive I have now. I may also choose to kick in some more money for an 8800GT instead of an 8600GTS if the price falls by $50 or so between now and then.
The plan is to place the order around the 16th, so that the parts will arrive by Thanksgiving Wednesday, and have the four-day weekend to assemble it and play with it.
Anyone see anything wrong with these specs? Any alternatives to suggest?
