$727 before tax/rebate.

8 gigs ram
GeForce GTX 560 Ti
3.4 GHz quad core

Calculated power requirement of 650W with 3 7200 RPM hard drives.

What do you think of this setup? I have a fresh 1TB hard drive ready to go, so I wouldn't need to get that, and I think we have a monitor/keyboard/mouse I can use for it.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

I've been told I'd probably need to look closer at cooling, as the 4 case fans might not cut it for my setup, but I'm new to all this, so I'd appreciate more insight.
