Not so much on the PSU... here is one that's higher quality for less:

If the Sapphire is this one:

Then yes. If not, consider waiting a week. It's a brand new technology and Sapphire is switching to this new cooling on the 4870. Only been available here in the US for a few days, possibly hasn't arrived in the UK yet.
Here are a few better CPU coolers... not sure what the Akasa you linked is, but these are top-rated:

P182: I really dislike this case... have you actually had your hands on one? The front door is plastic. It's quite popular though. Lot's of folks like it. The door opens and folds over to the side.... if you like that feature, just don't get a door 
I also have a more technical and non-personal objection. The case is not as well cooled as many other more modern cases.

I highly recommend this Antec 900.
You'll get no objection from me on the core parts. P5Q-E is a good board. If I've saved you enough maybe you can afford to upgrade the CPU a bit.
