Feek's right about the Noctua (it doesn't fit the DS4, for example).
I find Scan to often, but not always, be a few ££ cheaper than OcUK. Plus they didn't do my Dell monitor. I'm prepared to look for the cheapest place, wherever that may be. As for the optical drive situation, if you're saving money on the monitor, then might be worth considering this. It wouldn't be the first time that drive has been recommended here.

You could always drive up to scan and save more money on shipping
 Even better is just email themanwhocan and get it on the today only page and get even more off

All looks pretty good, you could purchase cheaper PC6400 or even PC5300 and still be able to run the CPU at the correct speed (1333/4 = 333.25 which is PC5300 speeds). If overclocking though that Ram may prove worthwhile.
If you are saving that much buying from Scan and Jen then it may be worth considering a larger and newer SATA hard drive - Football Manager still takes up a lot of space I believe.
