not a bad build at all

Looks great. If you want to save money you can get a cheaper powersupply, maybe the corsair 520HX, as you don't need all that power.

2GB of memory only? With that budget I'd get 4GB minimum!

ClubIT has the G0 version and is cheaper too...

Switch to the OCZ GameXStream 700W or the Stealth 600W...

Look at the Antec 900 and P180...
