Whoah, with that kinda spec you may aswell have got an Intel i7 and a GTX 580... also, it would benefit you for gaming to get that overclocked, which is highly advised on AMD gaming setups,

The plan is to wait to see how much bulldozer is before I overclock, I'm comfortable with doing it myself... and I would rather go with AMD because they are a lot cheaper then Intel set ups.

a few things could have been done to make this more efficient and save money, but too late now i guess

not much money really, wanted to go with AMD for bulldozer, the ram speed woudn't have saved much and I'm planning to overclock later on anyway not much else I can think of to save money on this build.

Yeah, it's looks pretty good, not much I would've done to it :)
Though did you pick up the Silver Warranty? If you just have the free standard one, I'd recommend you up it to the Silver one for the measely price of a fiver :)

...it is advisable to only THINK about licking your PCS PC. Never follow through with it as it can be damaging to your health (though licking of monster graphics cards has been shown to increase clock speeds slightly, noone knows why)
