from personal experience, make sure the ram is on the vendor's QVL(Qualified Vendors List). I think you will be happy with the P45 it overclocks great. Although I think if you were going to go Nvidia you would have got a nForce board. It will still work, but if you ever try to go with more gpu's you'll have to switch either the board or the video card.
Third time lucky? Final build after a little advise.

This is to be my first rig, had 2 previous builds that I considered but this is the final and has been ordered.
Would like some input from you guys on what you think and if it will last a while as I am not looking to upgrade anytime soon.
My budget was £900 so I pretty much met that, whoop!
I will probably look into overclocking even tho I know little about it. So plenty of reading ahead haha

The 2 x 80gb HDD's will run in RAID0.
