looks good but does your zalman cooler do 1156?

also make sure your psu is modular...there more efficient which will save you money in fuel bills......good ones will tell you how efficient they are..... 85%+ is awesome
 
Is everything else good value? and the best for the price? im gonna buy some of the items from there now.
 
everything else is good, not my particular choice of cooler, and I see you have swapped the psu for a good one.
 
Changed the cooler :) hope this does what i want :D gonna buy most of it all after xmas :p buying the ram and dvd rw as we speak :D
 
That build looks perfect. Only thing that I would change is probably the CPU cooler, although that is often down to personal preference.
