Hi all, I've done some reading round and figured this was probably a good all round build for a new gaming rig. Its going in my current modded case and the main need is sata and some good overclocking. Any modifications/amendments (which could save money or make the rig better with little additional cash) appreciated!!!

Unless you particularly want the blue LEDs then the Noctua NH-U12P should be just as good and slightly cheaper than the Tuniq Tower. Other than that it looks like quite a nice specification there.

I wouldn't change a thing you have obviously done your homework, any reason for the p5q-e though ? maybe the p5q pro is good enough saving a few quid ?
also might want to investigate just how well that ram clocks before clicking buy would be a bugger to end up with ram thats holding your e8600 back

Thanks for the advice guys, changed the mobo and cooler and went for some OCZ RAM on special this week, still almost the same price!!
