Looks good but ditch the e6700, because the extra $200 is not worth the .2 faster then the e6600. So just save yourself $200 and get the e6600. It can easily overclock pass the e6700.

Looks like a sweet setup. ANd although i agree with b1gapl, since this is your first build you might not want to try oc'ing just yet. Besides that, no offense but that case is ugly as ****. HAHA.
