Hey everyone. I am hopefully going to be purchasing a computer over the next month or three, and would love it if you guys could take a look at what I have so far.

Tell me how great I am, tell me how stupid I am, tell me what your favorite dessert is, just tell me something!!
Here's what I got

Here's what I need
Motherboard : SY-CK8 DRAGON Plus?

Case : Do I want a server. It's my first home built computer and I think the extra room would make it a lot easier. Is this true? Either way I wanted the X-Viper

or if money permits the Lian Li PC 75

As far as brands go, Here a list of GOOD ones, decent ones, and ones to watch out for would be awesome
Cd/floppy/cooling/lights I really dont know yet, I will make that depending on which case. I already have mouse and keyboard, what about speakers?
I think that is about it, but I'm probably missing something important, so leave me some input. Thanks in advance!
