Replace the CPU cooler with a Coolermaster Hyper 212 Evo and get at least 8GB of RAM. You will not need the Arctic Silver 5. The Hyper 212 comes with paste. The Crucial RAM is fine and if you can find 8GB then it's all good. If not go with GSkill Ripjaws X or Z or low profile Corsair Vengeance. You want 1.5v DDR3 1600 cas 9.

Other than that it looks pretty good.

That case comes with no fans. You need 2 minimum and 4 would be better. That cpu cooler is alright, but a Cooler Master 212 would be better for roughly the same price if it will fit on your case. Get at LEAST 4GB of RAM if not 8GB.
