Looks a good system, for youe cooling I would go for the ThermalRight SI-120 and a Vantec Stealth fan 120mm, that will set you around £40.

I would change your DVD-RW to a NEC ND4551 16x16 DVD±RW Dual Layer LabelFlash ReWriter :)

I'd get a Seasonic instead of the Hiper. the Hiper is good, but not all that quiet compared to the Seasonic. And the Seasonic is supposedly the most stable out there. :)

Have a Seasonic myself! And yeps, it's nice and stable... so far so good. :) The spec you've specified will make a great overclocking machine. :) And gaming? Well... can't get any better. :D

thanx for the advise. will see what clocks i get @ stock cooling and then decide on a after market cooler. still unsure on the PSU, went with the lite-on as it has a silver besil that will match the case
