Requesting build check!

[Spinnah]

Hey all! 

I've just finished compiling a build for my first gaming computer, and I'm looking for some criticism and possibly advice.

Here is my current cart: http://www.pccasegear.com/sc/zKS

I live in Australia, and my build has run a little over budget (would like to trim ~$200) and prefer buying from this site, but can do so from others also.

Anything in the build is subject to change under advisory from you guys (even the case), and peripherals have already been bought.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!
