Maybe opt up on the MB to an 800 series chipset with SATA6 and USB 3.0, but overall a good build.

Is this the PSU? => http://www.ebuyer.com/product/124927 ..if so maybe change to => http://www.ebuyer.com/product/221652 or something else "80+ Certified".

First off thank you both for your replies, you've put my mind to rest that this is a good build.

A couple more questions:
1) is the cooling from fans in the case adequate? Or should I invest in more?

2)I'm upgrading from an old dell 8400, I'm guessing the answer is yes, but will I notice a large performance improvement for things like encoding video and graphic design?


Whilst I always like the idea of upgrading I tend not to be able to justify the cost.
With regards to the age of the mother board do you think it's worth spending the extra money to get a newer one?
