I got a build here awhile ago and I've got enough money to buy it now, I was just wondering if there is anything that I should change before I go and buy it. I'm not looking for any sort of upgrades, just here to make sure I'm not wasting money.

Thanks for the suggestions, but I forgot to mention that my part list includes the 13% HST (Tax) in Ontario, I was able to add the 600W psu though... (And I've already passed my max budget of $800)


Edit: I'm off to bed, won't reply for several hours.
