is this spec ok?

Is this spec ok? I am going to get 2x G.skill ram for 8GB. I am over budget as is, but this ALWAYS happens because i get greedy. I cant see a way of saving any money unless theres a cheaper mobo (I just went for asus because thats what i have always had). I just wanted to check everything was compatable and whether there was any way to shave a few £'s off the cost. The intel solid state hard drive i cant change... i need the 80GB capacity and 64GB might not be enough.

thanks folks

yes i was planning to. the pc is intended for music production. I think this spec should more than suffice without overclocking at this stage for my intended application. I guess i will go for a decent cooler at some other point though as i do want to overclock this in the future.
