Spec Check

[ChrisUK33]

Getting ready to build a new PC. Can any of you give this spec a look over.

Looking for suggestions for the mothboard - can't decide on which 680i one to go for. Also which cooler would be best for overclocking the E6600 - hoping to get it to about 3Ghz.

Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz
Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC2-8500C5 TwinX (2x1GB)
BFG GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB GDDR3 HDTV/Dual DVI
Western Digital Caviar SE16 250GB 2500KS SATA-II 16MB Cache
Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler (Socket 775) ?
Tuniq Tower 120 CPU Cooler ?
Corsair HX 620W ATX2.2 Modular SLI Compliant PSU

Already got:
WD Cavier HDD
Dell 20" Wide LCD
Thermaltake Armour Case
HP Lightscrive DVD Writer


Cheers

Cheers Semi-Pro

I was looking at the tuniq tower only thing putting me off is I read it is a bit load on any setting other than low. Is this right?

Would this be better memory Corsair 2GB DDR2 XMS2 Dominator PC2-6400C4 TwinX (2x1GB) or any other PC6400 better.

I am not to worried about the price of the motherboard just want to get the best 680i, is this the BFG? I initially looked at the stiker extreme as I normally use Asus but haven't read many good things about it.

Finally about to put my order in, one last check plz guys and recommendations for Northbridge cooling. (apparently it gets quite hot)

Although I have decided on the BFG nforce 680 motherboard I am still a bit unsure between it and the EVGA nforce 680 - is ther much difference.
