PLE I presume? Better places to buy from.. Not a fan of the G.Skills either, but that's a matter of opinion.

If I have time During lunch(Pending Workload) or When i get home, Will offer some alternatives, better prices etc

missing a PSU unless you already have one, but other than that looks good
maybe get a 6950 as a gfx card is you gona play games?
unless you are overclocking you dont really need 1600mhz ram only 1333 should do it

3rd edit sigh: http://www.staticice.com.au/ use this site and filter it to WA to get best prices or interstates if you are willing to wait.

Purpose for PC? Gaming? Media/Photography?

If either of the above, why not go i7 and triple channel ram ?
Unless budget says no :P

A left field idea, but second hand Bloomfield/X58 gear is extremely cheap these days. i7 920 + X58 board + triple channel 6GB kit can be had for $350 or less, and will rape an i5 setup purchased new

I don't understand why folks with Bloomfield/X58 setups are migrating to Sandy Bridge and/or preparing for Ivy Bridge.

Hope you went SSD hard drives! SSD FTW !

I went a little crazy and put 32GB RAM, i7 and two SSD's in RAID-0

Does the job well!

PSU/Case/Peripherals = check

Playing games for sure, whats your concern with current choice if gfx card?

Purpose is for a bit of everything really.

PM JasonMurray, he'll knock up a few prices for you. and build it for you too

He'll be doing mine soon as i'm too lazy to do it myself.
