I think that will be a great setup. But if you're in the UK, try searching for those parts in different stores cause if it's in £, you can probably get most of those parts for cheaper.

i dont understand the fascination with that asrock board (actually, i do, its the tomshardware stamp) but it does look like a great build. i assume someone has already told you that you wont see much, if any, performance improvement over the i5-2500k.

do you have a cpu cooler?
