Looks good. Didn't see the psu but 4870 is only 150w so make sure your psu can handle it.

This RAM instead of the Ballistix, that's guaranteed to be the crappier Ballistix RAM since its 2x2Gb, only good sticks are the 1x2Gb Sticks that are double sided with chips.

Looks good, the cooler on the Gainward is awesome, build my cousins new rig a week ago wich had the exact same GPU, it's very cool

I believe those are Australian dollars (that's why the price looks huge to you)

Awesome build, but if its in the budget I would say get a Q6600. and G.Skill of ram. Other than that your build is good imo.
