Rate my $800 build! Advice?

I'd be a bit leery of the PSU you chose. Here's a tiered guide that can help you select a better one, but the TR2 is not a recommended unit. As far as other components, I like Asus boards but if you can scrounge a few extra bucks it may be worth it to step up to the M5A99 over the 97. I did a lot of research in checking on this and the 99 just seemed more solid. Lastly, I really like using SSDs so even though it may push your build up price-wise I would think about adding one either now or in the future.

It's all compatible, but i'd ditch the Thermaltake PSU for something higher quality, Seasonic, Corsiar and XFX are the one's to get. It looks like you didn't select any ram? get 8GB if you don't already have some. Good build though :)
