Hi, this is my 1st time building a gaming pc. I have looked at some specs but im not sure if they are any good, any feedback would be good, or if anyone want to help me out with putting together some parts that would be great. My budget is about £500-550. I already have a Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 1 GB DDR5 2DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI-Express Video Card but not too sure if it is any good. I only want to build the tower as i have everything else.
The parts i looked at are:

If you buy the 2500k than keep the aftermarket cooling fan, but that would only be if you are interested in overclocking. If not than buy the 2400 and save some cash, as the 2400 can't be overclocked so no need for the cooler and it is cheaper than the 2500k.
