Looks to be that way. With that GTX 580, you might have to remove the removable HD cage to make it fit since it is a large card (my GTX 570 is pretty long)

Otherwise good build. Waiting for Bulldozer I see?

Get the Samsung Spinpoint F3 instead it has better performance than the WD. It's only $60. I don't know the price difference between the 965 and 955 but you should be fine dropping to a 955 since black edition CPU are easy to overclock. The multiplier is unlocked. Good quality power supply. The rest looks good, you're good to go!

Thanks, I changed the the HD to the Samsung. I think I'll stick with the 965, it's only $20 more.
