I'll leave most of it for someone else, but you should avoid G.Skill memory like the plague. I and many others had major issues with it. Stick with Crucial, Corsair, Kingston or A Data

The GTX465 is not worth the money. It's original Fermi and is a disappointment. If you want a Nvidia, get a GTX 460 or GTX 470.

however that psu is great (its the one i got, no joke) and it has TONS of connectors, the downfall is it has TONS of connectors. its not modular, so anything extra will be sitting in the bottom (or hanging from the top) of your case.
i would suggest the modular version of that psu, unless you will have alot of extra room in your case. even in my antec 1200, those extra cables take up an entire 3bay hdd cage uselessly. great quality unit, and its rock solid stable, but too many cables for all but the largest cases.
