Few questions:

1) How much total did everything cost roughly? I mean damn, you got the BEST items in each category possible.

2) Which sound card do you plan on finally switching to? I'm planning on this one because it makes front audio a very simple solution, and the red glow of the card inside the case will be cool:

3) What Mouse/Mouse Pad do you use? Along with my new build, I'm upgrading these 2 items... Ive been thinking about the new Razer Mamba mouse, but I can't decide on what Mouse Pad to use.
