What PC do you have right now?

It's okay for that price. It's a complete pc from a store, right?
Water cooling isn't that perfect, couls be loud because the H50 isn't that powerful and Graphics card could be a little better.

Just to compare, here's a Graphics Card Ranking:

it you let it getting build, then use 8GB from G.Skill or Corsair, they cost only 35€ and are more than you ever need. I never needed more than 5GB.
As Power Supply a be Quiet E9 450W/480W. Better Quality Than the OCZ one. Your System won't need more than 300W maxumum.
You won't need Win7 Ultimate, the Home Premium has everything a normal user needs.

Which store is it? Mabe i can look up something good.

Okay^^ just thought i could put together a pc just in your budget maybe optimize the components a bit^^
With every "Z77" Board you can overclock your CPU.
