Personally I'd get a E6300, a Corsair PSU (more expensive but 5 year warranty) and a DS3 instead of that nVidia board.

Apparently those PSU's are actually really good for the price, they're no Q-Tec! (Would still prefer Corsair though ¬_¬)
 
looks ok to me id sort the psu out and prolly get a cpu cooler instead of using the stock one but thats just personal pref.

I agree on the 6300 and corsair, aslong as the corsair one isn't modular I heard the cables are a bit annoying (as in easily released).

965 and 650i are personal pref's IMO i would get the p5n-e instead of the Abit as asus are better.

The Corsair PSUs are modular, they are based on Seasonic designs, the S12 line for the main internals and a beefed up version of the M12 modular for the cable connections.

I'd probably change the PSU from the Huntkey as a matter of personal preference since I don't know a huge amount about them but the information I have found out is positive and they do apparantly come with a lifetime warranty.

I'd also change away from the Abit motherboard, not least because it is endorsed by Fatal1ty and I have no desire to give him any extra cash for a fairly ordinary product.

Kuhan, for future reference could you just post the names of the parts rather than or as well as the links. It just makes it easier to read. :)

That seems a pretty decent spec.

Though if I was to buy I wouldnt buy the NB cooler, as that case will provide plenty of airflow. And change the CPU cooler to either a Scythe Ninja or Freezer Pro 7 both are class CPU coolers. I would get the Freezer Pro 7 myself because I know from personal use that they are bloody amazing for the price.

Also maybe looking at getting a Intel Core 2 Duo E6320. Only a fwe quid more than a E6300. Clock that up to 3Ghz and you have a X6800. :)
 
i have that board and case... without the nb cooler i was stuck at 3.4ghz... but i do have 5 hdd's blocking the front fans i have a ninja myself but a lot of hype on that nocula cpu cooler at the min
