Just two things... I'd go with a different PSU (probably an OCZ, Corsair, or Antec) and you're gonna need 2 sticks of identical RAM for the dual channel to work (for a gaming rig I'd recommend 2x2GBRAM = 4GB.)

Other than that, looks good.

I agree with Irishwhistle... Everything looks good if that's in your budget, but for memory, and it being so cheap right now... Go for the 4 GB and match a pair of sticks up. (Even though they don't have to be identical to run in dual-channel) it's HIGHLY recommended.

I have heard Great things about G-skill memory and you can throw these bad boys in dual mode..
Side note: Dual-channel memory is faster, but sometimes depending on the setup you will barely if at all notice a difference. You would just have to test them to see what numbers you are putting out.

But if your set on Mushkin:

As for your PSU: Again i agree with Irishwhistle
I would go for something with a bit more power as well. That combo you have there will eat some power up.

Something like:

Whatever you choose though, GL with the build..

All right, thanks guys, i'll go with the G.SKILL RAM and the OCZ powersupply.

Yup! Those should do nicely.
