Check my gaming pc build?

[MrDonkeyhead]

Alight I've got a build going, but would love some other opinions on it.
I'm willing to spend $800-900 not including monitor/keyboard/os/mouse/speakers.
So check it out, the computer will be solely used for games. The kind of tips I'm looking for are; if I'm going over board on certain things or if there's a cheaper options out there thats similar to what I'm thinking about getting or if there's a slightly more expensive option thats well worth the extra cash. Any other comments are also welcome!

It looks good but since it is for gaming what GPU are you using?

Oops forgot to add that on the list.
GeForce GTX 560 Ti

Looks good then the only thing I would change is getting 1600MHz ram especially if overclock is in the picture.

Your setup is almost identical to the setup I will be building in about a month. Only difference is I am getting the WD 1TB drive, Same PSU but I'm getting the 620W version, HAF 912 case, and G.SKill 8gb 1600 mhz. Looks good to me!

My build is going to cost me about $850 Canadian before tax and applicable shipping. I'll let the experts comment and I'll take notes too

I wasn't planning to overclock, so do you think I should still go with 1600Mhz ram?

I just checked out the G.Skill 8gb 1600Mhz, I think I'll probably go with that considering it's about the same price as the RAM I picked.

Well overclock is easy on the 2500K since it has unlocked multiplier but a aftermarket cooler will be needed, a very popular one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103065
No overclock and you can save a little bit of money and go with the 2500 none "K".
