Already got the rest (See sig).

What do you think? I aint too bothered about overclocking.

If you aren't bothered about overclocking then I can't see any real alterations to be made, the motherboard doesn't have firewire or Crossfire ability but other than that you shouldn't miss out on much. I might still suggest getting an Arctic Freezer 7 or some other after-market cooler but that is more for the quietness than the overclocking.

Quieter would be good, so is the arctic 7 thing a lot quieter (and cooler)? Ive seen pics of it and it looks massive!
