For the price bracket I like it! Might be tempted to up the memory to 8GB, but you could always do that later. You could drop the cooling as a way of paying for part of it as it isn't really needed. 9/10 (based on price).

Well, the guys on a low budget and the Kingston adds cost without much benefit (although I bought it!).

Thought you were being sarcastic - apologies if not.

Specs looks good for the price. I assume you aren't planning on overclocking, are you?

No I wouldn't upgrade the RAM. 4GB RAM is enough for decent gaming, and the RAM speed has minimal impact on the PC's performance anyway.

If it were me I would upgrade to i5 2500 (3.30GHz), and go for Caviar Black as the HDD. Otherwise, it looks good and should serve you well ;)

I definetly think you should get a caviar black for faster access times which often causes lag when going near a big city in games like fallout

Its a nice spec.... I'd upgrade to the Corsair TX 650W and get a Caviar Black 750GB HDD but otherwise GOOD :) 8.5/10 ;)
