Well, I think i've finalized the specs for my massive computer, and was wondering if you guys could please take a look at and tell me if there are any parts i'm missing or anything else I can get? Please please please don't tell me to wait for DX 10, or get a different processor, i've decided on those things. If a different company is better for the graphics card, thats fine, but I don't want to wait for DX 10 at all.

Also, do you guys think I need a CPU cooler or will stock do? I'm not planning to overclock at all, at least not right now. Maybe after some time, I will but not at the moment. And no, I don't want to get a lower CPU :p

If i do need a CPU cooler, whats good? Scythe Ninja or something else?
 
I'd say that £666 for that cpu says it all ;)

I wouldn't say you will need a cooler other than the stock one as you dont intend to overclock it anytime soon. But as you are spending a lot of money on the rig and hinted that you might overclock it in the future it would be worthwhile investing in a ninja or similar for future use. Also the ninja 'should' be quieter than the stock?
 
would it be better to order it later on when I may overclock it actually? or will it make a significant difference to use it now instead of the stock one.

Also, overclocking later means maybe after a couple of years or so.

Also, is this ram the best I can get? cost regardless. I'm looking for the best, and was going with corsair earlier, but stelly I think recommended the G. Skill so i'm going with that, if that's the best. Or is there another G. Skill that's better? or any other company. basiaclly, looking for the best I can get.

Also, just to confirm, the case is fine for what i'm ordering?

I want to order this thing today is possible, so need to be sure i'm not missing anything. Would there be anything else that I need?
