Well I have everything. I went with a sexy Asu GTX 560 Video card instead of a Radeon. I spent a little more on it but I read that it had good overclocking for a little extra boost.
Anyways, now all I am waiting on is my motherboard. It was slapped in the mail on Tuesday, and I should have had it Wednesday but I have a forwarding order to a PO Box, and now I have to wait extra. So I won't get it until at least this next Tuesday.
This is frustrating, but I assume its well worth the wait.
Also, I decided to invest in Logisys 15" Cold Cathodes.
I got blue, sound activate ones for my case. I hope it looks great!
Lastly, I was thinking of either buying a heat sink for my CPU, or to buy a nice sound card (no more than $100 though) because I love music/movies/cinematic experiences in games.
Which should I get?

Update on the computer
I have purchased a few new items for my rig.
-NZXT Tempest 410 Elite
-a few assorted fans
-i5-2500 + DH67BL motherboard combo (I know, i5 was just the best option for me financially)
-XFX RADEON HD 6770 (if there is a better choice for similar money, let me know)
-Corsair Vengence Dual Channel DDR3 RAM (4 x 4gb = 16gb)
-Raidmax Hybrid 630W PSU
I'm just carrying over my HDD, but I will be getting an SSD for a boot partition in the near future.
What do you all think?

Building a new computer now. I just got a brand new video card. I also just ordered a new power supply. I'm looking for a good case now.
What are the general opinions on the NZXT Tempest 410 Elite?
That looks promising. I would then buy a motherboard, and I am still shopping for one.
Does anyone have any tips?

First post
Welcome. I hope you find this interesting enough, and I look forward to writing more as I get into the groove of blogging.
About me:
I enjoy technology, as well as music and sound systems.
Odd interests, I know.
Anyways, look for my next post about something else completely random and useless.
