I hope to build a new PC soon. It's my first time building so bear with me.

The specs are as follows

PSU: Corsair Powersupply 650W Black, ATX/EPS, 120mm Fan, 8xSATA, SLI

Motherboard: MSI P35 Platinum, P35, Socket-775, DDR2, Firewire, 1333FSB, ATX,GbLAN, 2xPCI-Ex16

Case: NZXT Apollo Black, steel Chassi w/ window, Screwless design, (Without PSU)

Graphics Card: MSI Radeon HD 4870 512MB GDDR5, PCI-Express 2.0, 2xDVI/HDMI/HDCP

DVD Drive: LG DVD±RW burner, GH20NS20, 20x, SATA, Black, OEM

CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz Socket LGA775, 8MB, BOXED w/fan

OS: Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium Eng SP1 OEM DVD 64bit

RAM: A-DATA DDR2 PC6400 4096MB CL5 Kit w/two matched DDR2 800 2048MB CL5

Monitor: LG 24" Wide W2452T-PF, 1920x1200, 2ms, 10000:1

I also need to know if there's any bits or pieces such as cables or fans that I have to buy too.

I might not go with Komplett as a few things are out of stock so can anyone recommend a good shop to buy from?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: I think I'll go with hardwareversand.de but now I don't know what RAM to go for. Can I get help here please?

I was kind of hoping to get 2x2gb so I have room for expansion. Does it just have to be PC6400 and it'll fit? For example will this work?
