If it's a good brand according to you guys, I'll go for it.

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)
