PSU HELP

firstly can i say you are spending a ridiculous amount of money there, you can get very similar performance for a lot less especially if you are willing to overclock.

changes i will make .
drop the qx9650 for the q6600 or q9450 and overclock it, this will save you at least £300

unless you need all of the features on the 790i based MB ,get one that use DDR2 ram and get ddr2 ram ,this will give you a saving of around £100 even if you get a 2x2GB pc2-8000 kit.

unless you already have 2x8800GTX, get only one and use the money you save towards your upgrade in the GPU department later.

add a good CPU cooler ,unless you already have one. i like the tuniq tower.

for the PSU,
