    I entered all those product codes for each part you posted and found them on the tigerdirect website (what a coincidence, I do my shopping there too!). Every part looks pretty okay.
    The only thing I can say from experience, is don't get the Thermaltake 120mm Ball Bearing case fan. I have purchased that exact same one, and even though it moves a lot of air (78 CFM) it gets annoyingly loud with 34 dBA, and I ended up returning it for peace of mind and less noise. But your case does not have a clear side, which may help muffle the sound because that fan does cool very well.

    And I couldn't help but notice you are getting a good deal on the case + PSU combo. Because usually, the Ultra X-Finity PSU's cost quite a bit...

    Wait for 5 more days AMD is dropping the price on x-2s 30 to 50 percent the 3800 is about $170.00 so the 4200 should have a good price drop to. Chris
