    I would say this, Keep the on board sound unless your opting for surround sound then get a 7.1 card. Other than that looks okay to me.

    No need for a sound card, unless your doing hi end recording studio stuff.

    It's just wasting a PCIe slot on your MoBo.

    Use the MoBo's onboard. Upgrade if you need to.
    How could this hapen to meeeeeeeeeeeeeee?lol.

    Just saw that graphics card. Have fun with that beast.

    Then again: If your a pro get an nVidia Quadro (Very expensive but amazing I've tried it..), or I'd atleast get the nVidia 8800 GT
    How could this hapen to meeeeeeeeeeeeeee?lol.
