I've decided on the final setup (or at least I hope it's final) and I'd like your thoughts. My only worry is I've slipped up somewhere and there's a component not compatible with the rest of the system! I've never built a PC from scratch and because some of the stores I'm buying from don't take returns unless the component is broken, I want to be sure I'm buying the right stuff you know! So could you look through it all and make sure it's compatible? I'd be sooo greatful!

P.S Are there any decent (not too cheap not too expensive) keyboards out there for gaming (or at least good keyboards not your basic stuff) that you can recommend?
 
I would also get a x1900xt. also that moniter is a bit expensive. I can get the same size and same res for about $300. You are wasting your money.
 
Cool, where can you get a monitor with the same size and res that cheap? (I'm in the UK by the way so I can't get it from a US store or anything lol).
