Ok, so based on what you guys have said so far I decied to make two changes to the build.
Instead of the Westinghouse 24" LCD, I am going with this... SAMSUNG 226BW Black 22" 2 ms (GTG) Widescreen LCD Monitor 300 cd/m2 700:1(DC 3000:1) - Retail And instead of the EVGA 8800GT superclocked GPU, I am going with this... PALiT NE/88TSSXT302 GeForce 8800GTS (G92) 1GB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - Retail Questions or concerns? -Cheers!

Those 2 improvements up there are good I guess, cant really talk about the monitor since I don't have one, but the graphics card is a good step.
The F7P is a great budget cooler, but if you really want to get into overclocking I recommend a more expensive one, such as the Zerotherm Nirvana 120, the Zalman 9700, or a Tuniq Tower.

That monitor is absolutely perfect. Have a Dual display, seen in action first time today. No dead pixels, perfect refresh, although only small 1680 x 1050 resolution. DVI and VGA inputs, rated 5/5. Would recommend this monitor to anyone, so for god's sake, just buy it.
