Gee the i5 4670k is $269AUD at pccg. AUD/NZD is 0.93 which means the i5 should be $289, not $308. Can you buy from pccg?

cpu cooler - try a coolermaster hyper 212 instead - good reviews, good price

And your mobo is only $159AUD (171NZD) here. I'd like another pciex163.o slot - try mATVX - http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=138_1491&products_id=23802 ASROCK rocks

Don't get that crap coolermaster psu. Get something classy that will last - Antec HCG 530M

Gee - everything is expensive. Have a look around.

yeah the rating tells you how much actual power it will put out. gold is better than bronze. but its not the sole factor of quality. For instance I'd get get a antec hcg bronze over a coolmaster gold. Antec, XFX corsair, and seasonic are the go to PSUs. generally speaking they are the best options but there are exceptions to that. For example the corsair CX series uses cheap capacitors.
I hope that clarifies.
