Default Building a Desktop - Need Comments

Alright guys, i've worked my arse off all summer so i could build myself a good desktop. Seems like things have come a long way since i first chose the stuff i would use, so i've updated my list, but i would like some input from you guys. Let me know if what i've chosen is good or not, if there is anything i could improve, criticism is welcome. If you think i'm buying something wrong, try to offer an alternative too

So here it is:

Mobo:
Option 1: ASUS Maximus Formula Republic of Gamers iX38 Socket 775
Option 2: ASUS P5E AiLifestyle Series iX38 Socket 775

Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 G0 Stepping (2.4GHz 1066MHz) Socket 775 L2 8MB Cache

Gfx card: ASUS HD 4870X2 2GB GDDR5 Dual DVI HDCP HDTV out PCI-E Graphics Card

RAM: Corsair 4GB (2x2GB) DDR2 1066MHz/PC2-8500

HD: Seagate 500GB Hard Drive SATA II 7200rpm 32MB Cache

Screen [Already Bought]: Samsung 24" 10000:1 1920x1200 5ms VGA/DVI/HDMI
