Yes, thank you. I didn't get SLI because from what I heard it doesn't help much and also because I can get another GTX 280 later and SLI those.
I was going to get this RAM:

But I decided I was going all out on this comp so I got the faster RAM. Had I decided to get the cheaper RAM, I probably would have got a cheaper mobo as well. From what you said, it sounds like it won't be worth the extra few hundred bucks, but, oh well. I know for next time. Hopefully it'll be worth something.
I thought about water cooling, but I've never done it and I didn't want to break shit or make a mess or something so I went for the quiet fan.
The mobo I have now is ASUS and it rocks. I've installed other newer ASUS mobos in other comps as well for my job at my university and they rock harder. So since I've never seen an evga mobo and have had good times with ASUS, I went with them.
