Not bad but I wouldn't put all the extra money into the faster memory and the raptor harddrive. I don't think it will make that huge of a difference for gaming. You'd be better off spending the extra money towards a higher end video card. If you're going to get an i7 you should complement it with a nice video card or you won't be getting your money's worth IMO.
Otherwise, everything else looks good. Gigabyte is a solid motherboard brand. I know a lot of people with that case. It's awesome for gaming rigs. Good PSU.
If you are that hell bent on the raptor HDD and faster memory you should put out the extra hundred dollars or so and try and snag up a better video card.
You can get a nVidia GTX 275 for a$ 210.
EDIT - Not that the 9800 GTX+ is a bad card. But the i7 will be bottle necked by older cards.
