Well i've decided to build a pc for the first time ever! This will be interesting..but anyways i've chosen these components (btw, i already have a keyboard, mouse,speakers, and OS)

Are they any good...should I get anything different? There's only four more days before I lose the instant savings and MIR's which would suck. So any input right now would be great! ..and if there's any suggestions..please don't pick anything thats too costly, i only have around $800 to spend.
Oh and one more thing, has anyone used Direct Canada? Most likely not since most of you live in the US but there's no harm in asking. If you have, are they reliable? I've tried to look up reviews for them and I've only found a couple. Still haven't decided if i should go with them or Ncix..I'd be saving quite a bit if i use their service though.
