sounds about right bud :)

What would an equivilant Intel system come out at?

Anything in there thats total overkill?
 
Ok well hows this:

Intel Core 2 Quad Pro Q6600 "LGA775 Kentsfield" 2.40GHz (1066FSB) - Retail
Tuniq Tower 120 CPU Cooler (Socket 478/754/939/940/AM2/LGA775)
Gigabyte GA_P35C_DS3R (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 & DDR3 Motherboard
Crucial Ballistix 2GB (2x1GB) DDR2 PC2-5300C3 667MHz Dual Channel Kit
BFG GeForce 8800 GTX OC 768MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI (PCI-Express) - Retail
Western Digital Caviar SE16 320GB 3200AAKS SATA-II 16MB Cache - OEM X2
Asus DRW-1814BLT 18x18 DVD±RW Serial ATA Dual Layer Lightscribe ReWriter
Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme Music 7.1 Soundcard - OEM
Corsair HX 620W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU
Antec Nine Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case

Total : £1,029.11

The Q6600 is a fantastic CPU, very fast. It will overclock to 3GHZ with little problems.

The Tuniq Tower is a great CPU Cooler and will cool the Quad very effeiciantly.

The Gigabyte motherboard is one of the latest motherboard chipsets, P35, it supports Intels upcoming 45nm processors, very reliable, solid and great overclocking potenial boards.

The Crucial Memory will hit 1000MHZ+ with ease, great stuff.

The 8800GTX is a fantastic card. The Ultra is a waste of money, since it only offers a few extra FPS over the GTX.

The Western Digital Hard drives, very reliable and quite.

The ASUS DVD Drive, nice drives. They also connect to your motherboard via SATA, this means you can get rid of them fat, ugly IDE cables.

The Creative Soundcard is a very good card for the price, well worth getting.

The Corsair PSU is one of the best PSUs around.

The case is up to you but have a look at something like this:

Fantastic build quality and cooling is very good as well.

swap the board for the ds4 and the cooler to thermalright ultra 120 extreme and it will be perfect.
