Well to start off I planed on a cheaper build. I planned on using this build till it isn't quite up to par in the years to come then buy another of the same gpu for crossfire then that would last me a couple more years at least. So what did I make this post for? I want to make sure the computer will be the most bang for my buck or to just be called a idiot for over paying but at least not waste all my money.\

So I own a case that will work O.k. also 2 Kingston 2GB (2 x 1GB) DDR3-1333 Memory and I play games on a tv.
The mobo, 4gb ram, power source, and processor are in a new egg package.
I also ask if I got the right windows 7 and HDD(my steam library has a TB of games and it grows constantly ;D) Should I have 2 HDDs?

and the cpu fan is cheap and compatible so no need to judge it 😀

Do you know the brand and model of your case? If you don't, then can you post a picture of it for us? It's always best to confirm that its a good case.
Also, ditch that 2gb ram you have. Not worth putting in this pc because its un-necessary and only going to cause compatibility problems.
Additionally, ditch the combo. Get this:

-Overall cheaper.
-Stronger gpu.
-Doubled the ram. Also its good ram. The one in the combo was rated at 1.7-1.9v (thats crazy. standard is 1.5v).
