Edit: Ignore OS in that case. Buy either a better airflow case (for overclocking and expansion), extra hard drives etc. If you could afford the higher end of the CPU coolers, this would give you ample room to overclock. I'd also look at the prices of the 5850's, although driver issues are apparent for some.

Reuse your DVD-ROM from your old PC.
Postage will be free if you have been a dedicated member to the OC forum which looks like you have been. Check out the link in the top right hand corner of this page for more details.

I've chosen a 1366 CPU because the socket won't be obsolete next year and the ASUS motherboard because it has the latest USB 3.0 and Sata 6Gp/s plus its a very decent overclocker that should push your i7-930 if you wanted to overclock now or in the future.
