Spec check please - Need to buy today

[OpenToSuggestions]

A friend's hard drive is dying and as he was saving up for a new rig, he has decided to get a new pc.

He already has a 7800 (which will do for now) and a Tagan 480w psu.

Basket:

Intel Core i5 750 2.66Ghz (Lynnfield) (Socket LGA1156) - OEM £159.99
Gigabyte GA-P55-UD5 Intel P55 (Socket 1156) DDR3 Motherboard £119.99
Patriot Sector 5 G Series 4GB (2x2GB) PC3-12800 1600MHz Dual Channel (PGV34G1600ELK) £86.99
Titan TTC-NK85TZ Fenrir CPU Cooler (Socket 754/939/940/AM2/LGA775/LGA1366) £32.99
Corsair Reactor 60GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive £144.99
Antec 300 Three Hundred Ultimate Gaming Case £42.99

Coming in at £590 inc. vat

We intend to overclock to 3.8-4ghz. We already have some artic silver paste.
We also will get an ocuk value solid state adaptor and do we need any 120mm fans?

I am fairly up on hardware but I am unsure which ram to get (aside from dd3 dual channel) or which SSD is best for £140-£160.
We need to buy today due to coursework reasons. Thanks in advance

edit: brackets can be had for around £2.50

rest of the build looks fine

Oh yea as if I missed that Thanks.

Anyone else got a comment before I go and buy?

Superewza: I haven't looekd into the x4 AMD really. I thought that the i5 quad was pretty much the same as it price wise and performance wise. I have felt AMD are way behind the game ever since their awesome AMD64 was outdone by the core2duo.

Looks fine, has your friend got another hard drive? 60GB might not last too long.
