Gonna buy a computer, last check!

So I'm going to buy a new computer, and I want to make a last check so I know everything is matched correctly!
Things to check:

* Will my motherboard work with the selected Graphics Card, processor, RAM, harddrive, etc?
* Any part that is shitty that you recommend me switching for another brand/another part?
* Is the Powersupply enough?
* Have I chosen the correct extra fan for that case?
* I will be able to connect to the internet with our Broadband connection, right? I won't need to purchase some kind of extra network card for that, right?
* Anything else that you can come up with.

Keep in mind that this is already greatly over budget so only suggest more expensive parts if it's necessary.

If you think the package looks like a good deal, you can of course say that as well. This is my first computer purchase where I have chosen the parts, and so I don't really have any confidence in doing this yet.

In case you are wondering:
* The "Byggnation av dator med valfria delar" item on the list represents me purchasing them to put the computer together for me. I wont change this.
* The "Fraktfritt Sweclockers vid köp över 500kr" item is a delivery-free-of-charge offer that you get for being member in a certain swedish computer forum.
You can just ignore these two items.

The purchase will be made over the swedish site https://www.inet.se/

Any help is MUCH appreciated!

everything looks good except the power supply... I have never heard of that brand and I'm guessing it comes with the case. Get a quality brand one like Corsair/Thermaltake/OCZ/XFX/Xclio/Enermax/CoolerMaster and so on.
 
How about an aftermarket CPU cooler. I don't know if the AMD stock cooler is any better than Intel's stock cooler, but most of us opt for a better than stock cooler.
 
Thanks for your replies!

Fractal design seems to be a respected brand around here (in sweden) at least :) It comes separate from the case.

How much is at stake if I don't buy a CPU cooler? Could my computer potentially break down or underperform?


Anything else you want to add? Everything's looking good? The CPU wont throttle the graphics card? etc?
 
The stock coolers are generally adequate at stock speeds, but if you overclock, as many of us eventually do, you'll be pushing you're stock cooler past it's design specification. Aftermarket coolers are generally considered essential for OCing. Something else to consider is that the better coolers with backplate mounting, (not push pins), often need the MB to be removed for installation. That is much easier done during the building process than after everything is assembled.

Allright thanks, I'll take that into consideration! :)

Anyone else got something to add on this package?
 
apparently not

can I take that as as long as I don't want to overclock, this package is a good deal to order?

Thanks for any replies :)
 
stock cooler is fine at stock speeds, probably can even handle a 200mhz oc fine...but anything higher, no the stock fan unit is not proper, but will be a bit noisy at load, but otherwise is perfect.
 
you think the extra fan will be enough to keep it cool? (The case is known to have mediocre circulation without extra fans)
 
So the extra fan your buying will make three total? Where are you putting the extra & intake or exhaust?
 
yes that will make it a total of three fans, but no idea where the extra fan will go. I guess inet.se who will put the computer together, will put it where they think it fits or something. I'm not good with these things :P

Three should be plenty for that build. I'd put the extra as a front intake. If you aren't happy with the temps ypu can always put one or two 140mm's in the top later, but I don't think heat's going to be an issue.
