Hello, as the title states, are these parts good for oc'ing and gaming, and because im in Australia most things are a lot more expensive than america.

Here are the parts
Asus M5A99X-EVO

Gigabyte nVidia GeForce 650 Ti BOOST

AMD FX 6300 Six-Core - AM3+

Thermaltake Water 2.0 Performer Enclosed Liquid Cooling System

Thermaltake TR2 Bronze 800W

Hitachi Deskstar 7K1000.C 1TB

Lite-On Super AllWrite SATA DVD Re-Writer OEM

Logitech G300 Gaming Mouse

Logitech G105 Gaming Keyboard

NZXT Guardian 921 RB

All the parts come to about 900$ here in Australia and about 50$ shipping. I am also buying off centrecom.com.au
and i have got all my previous builds from them!

Thanks in advance, Dan

At first a gaming mouse and keyboard are not necessary and you can put that money towards better components. Here are some alternatives to your choices. I found all of these on amazon.

The only problem is that in australia, most of those things are a lot more expensive than on amazon. I wish i could buy frim new egg, or amazon, but they dont ship to austalia (Facepalm) ill look into some cutbacks to get a better gpu

ok sorry, that stinks that they don't ship to australia but still take my advice and don't get the mouse and keyboard yet, use the money for a better cpu. Did you know most gamers perfer just a normal keyboard. Although a lot of players use razer mice, i have one and they are really nice. They are not as important as a cpu though.
