Yep
16gb of Vengeance RAM
Core i3 2100 Retail
Antec 300
Antec TruePower New Modular 650W
I also have the HP Lightscribe DVD-RW, 2 x quick Seagate 160gb SATA's and a couple of mediocre 500gb seagate sata's.
Just the board now. Going to go with the MSI G3 you suggested. Still shopping around for best prices.

Mobo Ordered! With a bit of luck everything will be here by tomorrow.
Now the question is. Do I finish building my car this weekend or do I build my PC?

Mobo no here until tomorrow! 
However on a positive note. A mate of mine needed a few quid so have swapped him my 2100 for his 2500k + £20 lol
