Corsair DOMINATOR AIRFLOW Fan - I personally won't buy that

Corsair CMX8GX3M4B1333C9 - I don't know if you really need 8GB. Also I recommend you at least use DDR3 1600
Get G Skill 4G(2x2G) DDR3 1600Mhz PC12800 CL8(CL8D-4GBT)
http://www.umart.com.au/pro/products_listnew.phtml?id=10&id2=153&bid=4&sid=51533

CPU - if you overclock, it don't worth to spend extra on 1090T. 1055T is good enough

Video card - I recommend 5830 1GB instead
http://www.umart.com.au/pro/products_listnew.phtml?id=10&id2=82&bid=4&sid=56571

PSU - since you choose 890GX motherboard, I recommend you get 750W PSU, such that you can consider crossfire in future

I am truly amazed at your efforts to check my computer list and examine and change some parts to what you think is right, computerforum.com would be a better place with more daisymtc ^^ !

b t w
what do you think of my current selection?
I'm pretty sure that this computer will run Black Ops well when it is released :)
