Do NOT OC your CPU. Only idiots do that.
Should say people with more money than sense.
The RAM you picked, would have to be OC on the motherboard to run. So you want 1333 not 1600. And never value ram, its rubbish its called value for a reason :P
The motherboard is the oldest chipset, get one with the 890FX chipset on it as it supports SATA III and USB 3.0
The 68xx series ATI cards are a cheap version of the 58xx/9xx's, do NOT buy them :P You have been warned. Get a 5870 or a Nvidia 460 for a good price for your buck.
Everything else is fine.

yea..the nVidia 460 is good bang for the buck also u might wanna have a look at the Asus Rampage III Extreme Mobo. just a thought. has USB 3.0 and supports both Crossfire and SLI also has the Intel X58. good board for over-clocking should u feel adventurous someday. looking at the specs u gave...that too looks good.
Value RAM is not fine, they don't have great timings.
The timings will make no noticeable difference in games. You will not see any noticeable difference with one ram that has timings of 7-7-7-21 and one at 9-9-9-24.
The only thing performance ram will make a difference in is if you plan to OC the RAM.
