The soundcard isn't really worth getting for gaming, I doubt you'd notice the difference between it and the onboard HD sound especially with those speakers. The CoolIT ECO cooler and 8GB of RAM isn't necessary. You won't see any difference between 1333mhz and 1600mhz RAM and with the saved money you can upgrade the CPU and graphics cards. It is slightly more expensive but it will perform a lot better.
