Motherboard - Asus P8H67 -M LX New B3 Rev £75Don't buy the H67 series motherboard. The whole point of the 2600K is its ability to reach high overclock speeds & H67 boards won't let you. The Asus P8P67 Pro is an affordable board that will do anything you need.Aside from that, a decent aftermarket cpu cooler like the Corsair A70 or H70. Overclocking that cpu is very easy. There are links around here for some decent guides & as long as you follow them carefully the risk of damaging your cpu is extremely low.

I am by no means an expert, but I would possibly look at a more powerful power supply. Stepping up to 800W may offer a day-to-day efficiency bonus. Saying this, I'm standing by to be corrected by someone more knowledgeable.Cheers

The motherboard looks very cheap compared to the other components. it may limit you if you want to reach a good overclock. also, only supports 2 dimms. Look at this one instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813130574

Hands up for the P8P67 PRO. It´s an easy overclocker and affordable.

Provided that it's a good PSU, 600W is more than enough for an overclocked 2600K + GTX560. It has to be either a Corsair CX600 or a GS600. Both are powerful enough for that rig:CX600 has 40A in the 12V rail for 480WGS600 has 48A in the 12V rail for 576WThe GS might even handle two GTX560 in SLI

I agree with everyone else... Everything looks good, maybe just bump upto a 750W PS

Really helpful advice. Thanks.

Also, if it's for FSX, get a I5 2500K instead. A p67 board as already mentioned and a decent cooler to overclock it

That would save some money if it's going to be used solely for FSX. I opted for the 2600K for other purposes.

Better board and 750watt PSU. Have fun.Pete Walsh.
