Why are you getting 2500k if you aren't overclocking? Why are you getting such an overpriced mobo? Why aren't you getting the i5 2400 instead for much cheaper?
Why would you pricematch a cheaper 6850 with a costier one? Confused.
What I'd do: Buy a hyper 212+ or something similiar and change the mobo to a cheap P67, you're already paying a lot for a mobo and P67 is going to have all those features anyway.

CPU about 160w max heavily overclocked to like 5ghz, 6850 about 120w max, rest of the stuff maybe 20-30w, and this is in max stress.

XFX Core Edition is manufactured by Seasonic and it's the exact same design as the Corsair TXv2. If you consider XFX bad than all the Seasonic manufactured Silverstones and Corsairs are also terrible.
If you want to waste money on an unnecessary power supply than you're welcome to.
Mushkins run at 1333MHz 1.5v
HyperX runs at 1600MHz at 1.65v
If you want guaranteed 1600MHz for 1 FPS than you're welcome to but Mushkins will easily run 1600MHz at 1.65v and can probably do at 1.5v as well.

Well since I have no idea how to overclock my RAM then I might aswell get the HyperX

Just my 2 cents, If you arent planning on overclocking, Why would you buy a 3rd party heatsink that most likely voids all your warranties? You could spend that 55$ on a better GPU or HD etc..

Though I agree it's silly to buy an alternative heatsink if you aren't overclocking unless it's a quiet solution designed for stock.

http://www.geforce.com/Optimize/OPS/Starcraft-2-GeForce-GTX-460-OPS I know it's not the same card as you want but its comparable to the gtx 460. As you can see, with your resolution, you will play at 70 fps average on the highest settings which is more than needed ( 60 fps is the max an eye can feel a difference). But in 4v4 you will def not get that fps but for the card you are good. Might want to get a better PSU, 450 W seems a bit low. The CPU is perfect same with the ram and you found an amazing price for the hard drive. So if you want to add a little bit more money, go for an upgrade on your mobo or gpu. Good luck.

how is 450W low when his system uses maybe 280W under extreme load? Please tell me

I know how to overclock my cpu, I can read up on overclocking gpu/ram I guess, but I'm just to lazy to.. I will eventually.
Anyway, so the build is good, nothing to be changed? And I've been looking for a case around the same price that is nicer, but how do I judge whether how good a case is?
