CPU is fine, can't comment much on the motherboard as I am still learning :p

The RAM, I have seen plenty of people reccommend the samsung 2x4gb kit that is on offer but not sure how those 2 compare.
 

Is this better than the current board that i have put down?

I'd recommend you go for this one if you can strech....

It's been given best budget board award and you get UK RMA.

Hmm can't really strech that much and i don't like the look the blue puts me off it :(
 
Good choice although if your decision was based on the DVI port then you could have bought an adapter to use on the LX2 for VGA ;)
