Retail is worth extra for the added cover.

That CPU cooler is good. Won't get super high overclocks though.

Are you running a gpu with it?
 
Retail is better as you get the heatsink with it and the extra warrenty. as you are getting an aftermarket cooler you'll bust benefit from the extra warrenty (worth the £10!)

You could probably get cheaper RAM I'd of thought (I cant check right now but will do shortly)
 
happy for recommendations for a better cooler

i have a GPU that i will use for now (radeon 6800) until i get something better

also happy for better RAM recommends

thank you
