Get a 500GB Hard drive, they aren't very expensive.

Get a PC Power & Cooling power supply, they are one of the best brands.

You don't need a X48 mobo unless you're going to SLi/Crossfire, so get a P35 or P45 mobo.

Get the silencer PSU if you can afford it, if not then get the other one you listed.

 

If you are going to Crossfire then get an X38 mobo(I prefer Gigabyte brand)it's cheaper than the X48 and you can still Crossfire/SLi.

I've never used an open box item before, but I assume if they are selling them then they are ok to use, I'm sure they have some sort of return policy for them.

Not sure, if you want get the Gigabyte X48 mobo, it's not that much more expensive unless you want to wait for the X38 to come back in stock. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6813128336
