not a bad spec, one suggestion though if you dont mind amending again:

If you are planning on overclocking it would be wise to reduce the processor to the non K version, the ram to the samsung 1333 and you could drop the cooler to the triple heatpipe.

With the saved money you could invest in a better monitor, maybe the Iiyama version of the 24" you chose.

Hope this helps!

I'm not sure, why would the non K one be better for overclocking I've heard other people say on hte forums that the k one is better to overclock. I don't really see a problem with the monitor though it basically gives me the same quality and I could upgrade a monitor in future much easier than any other conponent. Could you explain please I'm not sure about some things thanks

I think he missed the word I've added in bold :)
And his advice is good advice if you're not planned on overclocking, if you are however, leave as is.

Yeah I am planning to overclock at some point but not straight away. Yeah i was confused this was the sole reason I was getting 2600K and not the 2600 so I could have the option in the future

Good luck with your PC..
