Is the PSU powerful enough for this system?
Is there anything extra I need?
What would you change?, (i'm not bothered about the CPU cooling and HDrive space)

Thanks.
 
I would get the OCZ 2x2GB set for the memory instead of the 4x1GB!

Overall tho, great setup!
 
Overall it looks good, I might consider the Abit IP35 instead for the motherboard but it probably doesn't make a huge deal of difference. The PSU is more than enough for what you have there. :)
