I have an i7, with close to the same config you have there.

One thing to remember is that a regular 7200RPM HDD is just too slow for the i7, at least in my case. My single HDD is the massive bottle neck in my build. I have been kicking myself for not just ordering a bunch of 80GB HDDs and RAID0ing them.

I figure I'll wait until SSDs are more reliable and mainstream, and buy a few for RAID0.
