Well, I'm not sure if everyone is a fan of that mouse and keyboard but they'll do fine. I personally like having a mouse with a few buttons on the left side for going forward and back. And ergonomic keyboard I'm so-so with. But hey they'll work just fine.
The rest of your setup looks excellent. Just be sure! Be sure! Be sure to get the correct PSU to power your GTX b/c it takes two of those special plugs just for video cards these days. Make sure you can power everything inside. And yeah go with the GTX. I have one and it works great! Highly recommended. By the way, are you going to put XP Pro or Vista Ultimate on it? Just curious. I'm running Vista Ultimate on mine. Jam it back in, in the dark.

What functionality does Vlite gut? I want my awesome searching, tagging, and aero glass. I'd need to know full well what would be missing before I try this out. I want to clean my entire system one of these days and I'm sure reinstalling Vista and everything wouldn't be a bad idea. I'd love to hear your experience with Vlite.
There's nowhere I can't reach.

Yeah, well I mean does it describe what each of those features does?
For example, I looked on those forums already and some dude axed Windows Mail and because of that all his user permissions for Vista got trashed. ~~~~ I don't want any of that crap happening to me. No way. I need to know exactly what I can and cannot get rid of for my ideal Vista setup. Also, http://www.autopatcher.com/ looks pretty sweet. =) This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Heh, my mouse only has a back and forward button on the left side. I honestly really miss it when I use a mouse that doesn't have them.
Thanks Render, I'll be sure to keep an eye out on Vlite and do tell how it works out for you. It interests me greatly. I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Sounds good. Do show us what case and PSU you're thinking of. Also, have fun fitting the GTX in. I had heaps of it when putting it into my case that also has like 4 harddrives that try to block it. I had to move it down to the second PCI-Express slot because harddrives were like DO NOT WANT. HUGE GRAPHICS CARD IS HUUUUEG! ='D
I was speaking idiomatically.

That PSU is plenty good. Mine is far weaker and powers the GTX, 4 harddrives, 2 dvd drives, an AMD Athlon 4200+, and 2 GB. With all that I've got a 5 out of 5 rating on the Vista Experience Index.
As long as the case you get has a few usb ports in the front, looks nice enough, and can house everything you want anything should be fine. I'd keep an eye out how they store harddrives though. I honestly like something along the lines of this pic in how it arranges harddrives down at just the bottom section that faces you: http://images10.newegg.com/NeweggIma...146-028-11.jpg from http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811146028 What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
