First, Welcome to PC Apex!
Second, I was wondering what your budget would be for your computer / what games you plan to play (other than CS:S and 1.6 that is. DX10 games?)

The only thing that i see that you should not do is install Vista on that small drive. Vista is a pig of an OS (i run Ultimate...ugh) and with that little drive it is going to take forever to do anything.

For the Videocards, why not the 8800 320mb? I have 2 in SLI and i am maxed out on settings in Bioshock @ 1650 x 1080. Would be worth the extra coin to have it....

And Welcome to PCA! Looks like you have a good system there. I know you will enjoy it!

Welcome! A bigger HDD for Vista would be beneficial.

Sup Nem. Nice to see you around these here parts of the web IDE isnt a good idea for a master HD, unless its the absoloute option at hand. 80 gig SATAs go for pretty cheap. I also know a guy selling one for a decent price I could talk to. Consider RAID as an option also. Some guys around here could also help you with some deals of their own.

Peace bro
