I would get rid of the corsair ram the DS ram is great. get rid of the raid setup for your HD's. Go with a small SSD for your OS/apps and a 1TB drive for games and storage. don't OC the vid card, you're not going to see much difference and you could shorten life of card. get rid of OS tweaks. you don't need that on win 7 because it is optimized much better than vista.
 
that's about all the changes i would do.
 
you might want to post what your budget is and let the pro's create a badass rig

Heres what I would do. You should really get rid of the raid and invest in a 80gb ssd for your operating system. That will improve your performance when opening and closing programs, loading levels in games, ect. any time the hard drive is being used it will be faster. Then on your second hard drive i would put the 1x 1tb drive. Also i wouls switch to the external USB digital media card reader because i'm guessing that one is a plug in to the usb port version so therfore it doesn't disable the front usb ports all the time. If you don't care about the front usb ports keep what you have. I wouldn't overclock the video card because they don't overclock much and generate a lot more heat. It also might shorten the gfx cards life. I wouldn't go with the OS boost because they might disable something you could use in the future and windows 7 is pretty fast anyway.

Heres the build i just ordered its almost the exact same price as the one you have only configured differently. It was highly suggested by alot of the members here. Some things like the blu-ray you can obviously switch out if you dont need it.
