Hi Everyone I have just recently put together a components list for a computer and I am curious as to whether it will work as in all the components work together well, these are the components I am planning on buying:

Case: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-037-ZA
Motherboard: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-481-AS
CPU: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-354-IN
RAM: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-063-GS
Hard Drive+OS: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=SW-000-OP (with 1TB Hard Drive)
Optical Drive: Already Purchased.
Graphics Card: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-131-MS
PSU: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-034-CS

If anyone could give any tips or insight into how this would run or if it wont would be much appreciated

Cheers

RJC's spec is pretty much spot on with the OCZ PSU.
and the GPU + RAM at those prices are a steal!
