I'm sorry if I sounded arrogent, I was asking a rhetorical question, I wasn't trying to be a jerk.
No problem at all, didn't think so either..

Also I know your own a budget, but the quad processors are already out (Q6600 Q6700).
I've seen them, but they're to new and therefore too pricey IMO right now.
I usually never buy the latest tech, since the price vs. performance "ratio" isn't the best there....

Don't know much in Chieftech, but Hyper is pretty good. I know lots of nerds that use it.
I like the Chieftec Dragon case a lot, and I've also added DampTek Noise Absorption Mats to it so it's pretty silent..

Your 580W should be good. just make sure it has the right connectors for SLI if you go down that path.
The Hiper PSU is "SLI-Ready", so that shouldn't be a problem.
It's a really great and silent PSU, can barely hear that it's running.
