Need advice/opinions on a build

[krookodilehunter]

A friend put this together for me and I'd like to see what people think about it.

It's mainly going to be a gaming computer, but if anyone knows of any better parts, or if I could get something cheaper, please let me know!
Thanks in advance!

If your budget allows, I'd add in an SSD for your boot drive.

Do you have one that you would recommend?

Crucial, Samsung or OCZ are generally considered good bets.

And I'd look at Intel 520 series or Samsung 830 series (I have an 830 256GB and it rocks!).
