The coolermaster 500W is semi modular and quiet, this means you only attach the cables you need, so this saves a mess of unused cables blocking airflow. They are a luxury but nice to have if the budget allows. I added the corsair too as an alternative.

The A75 chipset allows sataIII and overclocking, so I switched to the MSI mobo for a few quid more. The RAM is 1600mhz which will help should you want to overclock the system later in it's life.

The 460W seasonic is truly a great PSU.

I'm hoping it will be enough for my system! Think I'll hit 500W unfortunately :(
