yes you can't max out gta 4 or crysis, gta 4 needs more vram and crysis will need a third 5870 if you want high aa.

you do realize the mobo you picked will not have any other pci lanes open nor can it do tri sli/cf right?

you got no need for cooling the chipset, I would cool the gpu before I cooled chipset.

you will have no use for a 4.0GHz oc which is why none of us recommended it to you, go with stage 1.

use ESET Smart Security, it has a 30 day full free trial, try it first then buy a license after 30 days its much better then mcafee, don't get mcafee.

get win7 pro

get your monitor from newegg, you should payless or even find a better monitor, same with your Office 2007 Home and Student.
