Hi and Welcome!

Lost the liquid cooling and go for the quiet option, you dont need it unless you are planning a home overclock or something like that.

Drop the ram to 1333mhz unless as above your an overclocker.

The GPU is fine but not a gaming card if you are gaming you may want to improve this.

And thats about it i think!

Great spec, but wait till Monday - there's a new Graphics card being launched to replace the GTS250, and it's only about £15 extra. It's not hard to guess the model name :p

Also - with the above spec, you won't be able to write DVD's or BD's. If you need to write DVD's occasionally consider changing the drive to a different one.

is it the GTS450 or something? ;)

I'd change the hard disk to the 1TB WD10EARS 64mb cached version for a few pounds extra :) Larger cache being the next best thing to a solid state drive :)
