No offence mate, but i don't think your getting the idea here.
For your budget you won't be able to fit watercooling in.
Watercooling that actually makes a difference will cost £200+
And then, you would have to mod your case, as you won't be able to fit a decent rad inside the case.
If i were you, and you really wanted to stick with AMD (which isnt a good idea IMO) Then wait for the new Mobos to come out, and get a Phenom II, they are turning out to be not bad!
And as for the GFX, i would probably reccomend a 260, or depending on the prices, a 280
Although, if your an AMD fanboy, then surely you would get an ATi gfx, as they are the same company, so go for a 4870 as suggested!

Again, wouldnt go for it. The cheap SSD's are not very reliable and the compatablity is terrible.
If you want a nice boot drive, i would get a Raptor

someone has linked you already to the link. Why go amd?? Surely you want to get the best peformance for your money? Table have turned now amd was better back in the day, personally, but now Intel chips have a lot better performance!! Get a raptor for your OS, Intel, and a ati g.c (personall choice not much between ati and Nvidia- ati have the edge my opinion)

That should start you off.
Case, PSU, GFX, Opti, HDD and you're done :
You can still forget it with a monitor though - no way for what you're asking for under a grand unless you bought an old X2 with a 7600GT
