Hello guys ok this is my first gaming pc build tell me if it will work. case: Antec 1200 full tower, motherboard: MSI p45 platinum intel chipset, Prosseccer: Intel core2 quad q8400 running at 2.66 mhz, ram: Gskill 4gb 240 pin ddr2(PC2 8500) Dual channel, Hard drive:Western Digital SE16 500 GB,PSU: Lltra X3 1000WATT modular,Video card:HIS Radeon Hd IceQ4 turboX 512mb GDDR3 dual dvi crossfireX ready. For the cpu cooler I was going to go with the XIGMATEK Dark Knight-S1283V 120mm Long Life Bearing CPU Cooler but not sure if it will fit with how the north bridge cooler rises up from mother board.Also what would be a good Optical drive for my setup.Give me some info on this and any suggestions you might have on components .Thank you hope to hear form you guys soon.

Given any thought to an X58 w/corei7? You're almost there anyway. It's the trees moving that makes the wind blow

Yes I have thought of the X58 and the i7 proccessor but my budget does not allow it to be. But above all will this set work together well?
