Nice setup, i personally would go/have gone the 890FX chipset instead of the 890GX and look at a price of a sata 3 hdd 6GB/s, i don't think there much more expensive then a sata 2 here, and if you can spare the little extra cash i would recommend a 700-750W Thermaltake PSU. Thats just my 2 cents.
My current system is a Asus Crosshair Formula 4, AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1090T Processor overclocked from 3.2 to 3.6Ghz and XFX ATI Radeon HD 5970 Black Edition, it in my xfire profile aswell
