You got any specific features you want/preferences over parts and brands? I assume you want WiFi capability (which would push the above build a bit overbudget)?

The XFX 7950 recommended above is probably the worst aftermarket 7950 out there. It makes quite a lot of noise, and it's temperatures are worse than the reference design: http://www.anandtech.com/show/5476/amd-radeon-7950-review/16 It's worth spending the extra £20-25 on the Gigabyte version the 7950.

Don't get a Cooler Master power supply, they tend to explode rather easily (not much fun). Your always going to be safe with something from Corsair/Seasonic/PC Power and Cooling (XFX and Antec also have reasonably good power supplies -- XFX's are produced by Seasonic).

No point wasting money on the H60, Noctua' NH-D14 will cost less and perform much better.
