PC Build - any final thoughts before the trigger?

Stick this memory in it - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MY-094-KS&groupid=701&catid=8&subcat=1517 - its more likely to fit with the heatsink.
And how about a modular PSU for similar costs - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-002-XF&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1497
or a non-modular for less £££ - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CA-003-XF&groupid=701&catid=123&subcat=1497

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm unsure on the memory atm, as I know Vengeance will be fine for two stick usage (single dual channel set) and I'm not looking at adding more any time soon! But a valid point nonetheless - thanks for keeping my wits about me.
What is the difference in modular PSUs from non-modular? (wanders over to the PSU sub-forum...)

A modular PSU has detachable cabling making wiring neater.
This picture shows a Venom cooler and low height GEIL ram
Corsair vengeance is a lot taller.
Changes
Did a lot of searching with regards the Vengeance - apparently P8P67 should be OK for a single dual set (I have posted in other areas)... however, the Kingston does look good.
As OCUK have the Kingston as 1.5-1.65v with 1.65v test voltage, does this mean there will a performance hit for SandyBridge (1.5v)? If I know they will be fine it's a simple shift over!
Also, thanks for the modular PSU distinction. Missed that previously. PSU changed to: Antec TruePower New Modular 750W Power Supply - no major price increase for extra 100W & modularity. Would have liked Corsair (previous PSU was Corsair & GREAT) but too expensive a shift (over £100 modular)
