Actually, I am much less educated about my computer.  I just went for the most bang for buck components I could find and built it, while it might be great for video editing I don't do any of that...  
 
My videocard only gets its chance to flex its muscle playing computer games which i don't even do that often
 
I think total cost (not including screens) was around 1350ish 5 months ago if you can believe it

The rig is designed to be a high end video editing machine. The GTX470 is the most powerful geforce GPU that supports Adobe's GPU acceleration engine (mercury). Thought I'd just point this out because no one seems to have cared enough to answer yet.

Well now that rrahman knows what his computer was built for....

You do realize that the most powerful Geforce GPU that supports Mercury engine is the GTX 580, rather ahead of the GTX 470, which by itself is no slouch.

What kind of Denon that is hung on the wall? How do use the Denon and the HD600 together?
 


It's the D5000. Typically I'll have my Beta22 balanced amp on the rack.....and using the HD600 with it, and the Denon with the Woo. I just moved and haven't unpacked the Beta yet.

Really? Its been a while since I last checked the supported list

Ah, ok :) I did notice that following the Geforce GPU supported models list, the GTX 470 was the highest model supported, and while I haven't checked on their forums, I assume support for the GTX 570 and 580 was added recently (the only Geforce models supported higher than the GTX 470).

Actually it is said that by altering some file one can add support for most CUDA based GPU

I haven't heard of that, but it certainly makes sense, given that virtually all hardware flags are present, and palpable differences would lie only in the performance of GPU reliant operations. Still, I would avoid using low end GPUs for such tasks, while anything midrange and up is perfectly suitable.

Ofc, windows 7 64 bit... 32bit OS's only use up to 4gb ram i think

What OS are you running?
I mean, are you using a 64 bit system?

For the amount of memory the computer has installed, 64bits OSes is the only option. If it had borderline memory amount, a 32bits OS could be used, as the memory limit could be extended a bit, still this isn't a recommended procedure.
