It looks like a pretty good basic gaming system. How do you intend to use it?
Have you confirmed that the memory is compatible with the mobo?
The text for the PSU link states that it is a 600w PSU but the model listed is 520w, although that should be ample for the video card you listed and even many that are more powerful. I assume you are not planning to SLI as the PSU might not easily accommodate that.
I assume you will be using a 64 bit operating system to take advantage of all the memory.
You did not list an optical drive, so I assume that is just because it is pretty much a generic item.
 
hey thanks for your reply ,

First of all I intend to use the pc for gaming and also for some programming and other stuff .
And yea I checked if the memory is compatible with the mobo
As for the PSU it's a 520 W not a 600 W :p

and ofcourse I will be using a 64 bit OS
