I wouldn't trust that PSU Even though your build wouldn't be classed as "high-end", I would look at one of the better brand-name PSU's. Something like from Antec, Thermaltake, Silverstone, OCZ, and a few others should be much nicer. Look for one that is at least 500-550 Watts, and the higher efficiency, the better. I'm never buying a sub-80% efficiency PSU again!

Also, you need to add an optical drive to that build. A DVD Burner is the most common nowadays, and they can be picked up pretty cheap.

EDIT: If you post some links for the parts you're ordering, I can help you find a better choice PSU, and a DVD Burner.

PSU: £46.44
Antec EarthWatts 500W 80%+ Efficiency PSU - 80mm Fan 4x SATA 2x PCI-E

that seems good and i have read a few reviews, and i know antec is good.
ye?

If your going with that don't expect to do any upgrades in the future unless their are not major cause that will definitely now have enough juice. I also recommend the one James suggested or the 700 watt version.

While the earthwatt is a good PSU especially for it's class, for 3 euros more, the OCZ PSU has better price/performance and is a better PSU, with room to upgrade.
