What does all that total? At first glance it seems good, but if you have a specific price limit, it would be easier to fine-tune the components and maybe get a bit more bang for your buck.

This is a very good bang for the buck set-up and I fully agree with daisymtc about not buying a rubbish PSU.

As has already been asked, what is your budget? We may even be able to do better concerning parts thought the cpu daisymtc linked you to is an excellent one.

This power supply is pretty decent for the price...
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817182074

This video card, for $5 less, will perform better.

And for $1 more, you can get this memory, which in my opinion, it's better.

As for the motherboard, please check their manuafacture website for that model as I read somewhere that specific model doesn't support PCI Express 2.0. Not sure on that please double check. Someone confirm this?
