I think they are good. For about 20-30 bucks more you could go with an asus one if you want.
This psu is a very good bang for the buck, you won't find a better 550w psu cheaper than that.

I love the HP 23xi, I just love it. Check it out on youtube or something.
If you are not overclocking, you can get a non k cpu, a cheaper mobo (I can suggest some) and no need for the cooler. With the difference you could go with an i7.

Wow i can't thank you enough that seems like a perfect build! never had experience with asrock before only ever had asus motherboards are they reliable? and for the monitor sadly i can't get it here localy (Canada) i might try to get it shipped depending on shipping price. Also i would like to go for an I7 if possible maybe we can reduce the PSU for a 500-550w and we can remove the HDD i have an extra 2TB here.I'd rather not overclock.
