Looks pretty good. But why not go with a Asus or Intel motherboard if they are avaliable in your country. Also why not go with a 512 MB video card?
 
Thanks for your replies everyone.

Emperor_nero--- I've already got an OS (microsoft windows XP), and a large 21inch CRT monitor (aka rhino). I did'nt bother posting my keyboard/mouse and speakers cos they're nothing special just basic and cheap.

johnny--- I chose an Abit motherboard because they're a make that I trust and they make their boards to a very high standard I've never once had a problem with them. I can't really afford to get a better graphics card at the moment so I'm hoping in about 6 months time when i have more money i'll upgrade to a DX10 graphics card.

ceewi1--- A DVD-RW would be a nice but its something I can manage without for now as I don't really have enough money. And I know even before any replies that your not gonna like my PSU/case choice:

....but unfortunatley I don't have enough money at the moment so maybe later on this year I'll get a decent case and a good power supply that will be able to support a better graphics card.

JlCollins005--- I live in the UK and unfortunatley newegg don't ship to the UK.

There's no point on getting a 512mb variation of a low/mid range graphics card, it's just a waste of money.

That's a dangerous decision with the PSU there, I hope you're not planning to OC.
