I would go for the E6300 OEM for about £115 (oem because you're getting a separate cooler and its as good as the e6400 from what i've read except for the lower multi - but you are getting good ram for a high fsb anyway), cheaper mobo and a second hand graphics card from ebay (you'll want dx10 in a few months time). Should save you a couple hundred quid
