£232 seems a lot to spend on case/cooler/ram sinks in my eyes (considering this isn't a total top end expensive rig), as none of those are actual 'live' parts in a system if you get what I mean Obviously it will help towards a better overclock, but I usually feel that it is better to buy midrange when it comes to those sort of components and spend the savings on better core components.
It's clear that you have your heart set on that case though But even so, to me £71 seems a lot to splash out on cpu/ram cooling, I'd imagine that you could spend half that and get clocks only marginally slower.

Sorry for stating the obvious but along with your spec you will need:
1. A power supply (500w plus based on your spec),
2. A graphics card, depends on what you intend doing with the pc
3. A hard drive, as above.
We need detail to help you
Well stating the obvious the components i havent listed are those that i already have from my current rig in my sig
