So now sandy has come im upgrading my 4/5 year old pc.
This is my setup so far, im not 100% about the cpu cooler, i just dont want something horribly obnoxious.
Chose that mobo as i plan to go SLI at a later date, and i quite like the geforce cards, mines been very good to me.

Open to all suggestions as this is my first build and to check more importantly im not missing anything major.

I would go with windows 7 home edition OEM unless you need the proffesional, you could save on the ram too.
 
Get a ati 6950 flash it to a 6970, better and cheaper. You could also save by getting xms3 or geil ram.

+1 6950 is a good shout. info on unlocking to 6970 here.

as for the ram, the geil kit is £30 cheaper and hardly any slower.

as for the psu - i would give this one a look. its cheaper and higher efficiency. Here is a review.

Also, do you need the features offered by Windows 7 Professional - or will Home Premium (£36 cheaper) be sufficient?

The rest looks great and the titan cooler you picked is excellent.
