Ok, here is a layout of the parts I just ordered:

Mobo: Asus Rampage Formula X48
CPU: Core 2 Quad Q9450
Heatsink: Xigmatek HDT-S1283 with retention bracket (no more nasty push pins! yay!)
RAM: OCZ Reaper 2x2GB DDR2 1000MHz (the ones with the huge heat pipes) 5-5-5-18 timings
Video Card: Diamond Radeon HD 4850 (woot! 1 for now, but a 2nd one maybe later!)
HDD: 500GB 7200.11 Seagate with 32MB cache
