will these bits and bobs work together guys, i'm gonna order in the next hour hopefully, don't want to own myself and get parts that wont work together well.

thank you in advance overclocker people, also any suggestions welcome.

 
Looks good. I would swap the CPU cooler for a Titan Fenrir though and may as well get the OEM CPU as you won't need the stock cooler

Only issue is that the titan fenrir description doesn't say it supports i5.

But ocuk include it in their bundles.

Early reviews from last year say its not supported.

But a new review this year at hardware secrets says it does support i5.

Its confusing, titan even sell a adaptor for this cooler, but not sure if its for an earlier revision.

it comes with an i5 bracket stapled to the back of the box - newer ones support it.
 
Corsair H50 for cpu cooler and I would look into maybe a slightly more powerful psu in case you want to crossfire the 5850 one day?
 
The zalman cooler can only be mounted vertically, and if you have a graphics card in the top slot this may limit the air flow through it - raised temps by 10c in mine :o
