What could I do to make it better/cheaper? Thanks :)
 
Yeah, the GPU is weak compared to everything else.

And the RAM you posted is 1600 speed. Your MoBo can only support up to 1333.

I would also go for a WD Black 500GB instead of that Green. It's the same price, but much more reliable and 6.0GB/s which your MoBo can handle.
 
I was also wondering if the PSU had enough watts and if I could possibly go lower, I'm not really good at those watt calculators :P
