I've actually come up with that config after consulting other people. But then got delayed to go buy it. So I'd like a final review (type of thing) by you guys if this config is balanced properly, my needs, and future-proofed for a good 2~3 years. :)

.::EDIT::.

Oh and.. also.. I need help deciding a shop where I can buy all of this and get it assembled. (Computer Empire and SMC Int. I hear are good)
