I would get a more reputable brand PSU like Corsair or Antec. Everything else looks good.

 

[oogee]

according to the review the psu is a brand released by compucase, so its nothing new.

Take a look at this topic http://www.techist.com/forums/f76/read-first-updated-power-supply-guide-221778/
I stand for my suggestion, but it's only a suggestion so get whatever you want...

get this memory instead, better clocks and 5 dollar cheaper and better brand imo

NCIX.com - Buy G.SKILL F3-10666CL7D-4GBRH Ripjaws PC3-10666 4GB 2X2GB DDR3-1333 CL7-7-7-21 Core i5 1.5V Memory Kit - F3-10666CL7D-4GBRH In Canada.

I just did a very similar build yesterday. Those are horable prices. you should check microcenter.com They have a buy an AMD processor and get a free motherboard deal goin on now. and for an extra 10 bucks you can upgrade. Right now you can get into a 6 core with mobo for under 200 bucks.

Microcenter doesn't ship to Canada. Also note those are CAD dollars. (Though the exchange rate makes it almost equal...)

I didn't know microcenter shipped at all. Pretty sure it's just in store pickup.
