Hi, just wanted an opinion on my new comp build - one thing to keep in mind is I'm from Australia and limited by stock. I'm planning on using itestate.com.au to order through.

Building it mainly for gaming / personal use, don't want to upgrade for a few years and want it to be good enough for Starcraft 2. My main concern is if everything is compatible and if my PSU is enough for the gear - I won't be overclocking.

Any opinions would be appreciated!

PSU:
Power Supply 600W Coolermaster eXtreme Plus RS-600-PCARE3-AU (with SATA Cable)

MB:
MotherBoard Intel S775 Gigabyte GA-EP45-UD3R (Ultra Durable 3)

Case:
Gaming Case Thermaltake V9 VJ40001W2Z Black (23cm Top Fan/12cm Front-Rear Fan)

RAM:
Desktop DDR2 Ram 4GB Kit (2x2048MB) PC6400 800MHz Corsair-Performance XMS2 TWINX2 MATCHED (T2X4096-64C5) 5-5-5-18

CPU:
Intel Core 2 Duo E8400

Video card:
Video Card PCI-e (nV) GTX 285 2048MB Sparkle SXX2852048D3-VP

What do you mean "limited by stock"? If you want it, I can find it for you.

Are you including a hard drive and optical (DVD) drive for this build? Also perhaps an OS?

Other than that, it looks alright, although I'm not a fan of CoolerMaster PSUs. Try looking for an Antec or Seasonic or Corsair instead.

haha woops forgot to include them - just sticking with windows xp for now, going to use my old DVD drive SATA DVD-RW Asus DRW-1814BLT
and HD going to be upgraded to:
3.5" HDD SATA-300 500GB 16MB Seagate (7200rpm)

by limited by stock, I mean we don't have a newegg equivelent in Aus and itestate has decent prices / decent stock range, so I'm limiting my choices to what stock they have
