Processor is fine

MOBO doesn't really matter unless u overclock.

4 gb ram is gr8. PCIE 2.0 gives around a 4 fps advantege only as not any game out there uses up all the 1.0 bandwith.

PSU is ok. VGA is ok. Get A4 tech x750 bf. It is better. Also, get ASUS vento casings. They are rock solid. Get the A8 one.

YOu should be set i guess...

It matters very much actually, faster chipsets and more features mean better fps and greater durability. P5Q-L(12K) is minimum justice for that rig, dude.
GPU and CPU is good.
Ram is satisfactory.
You can easily do with a 500 W PSU, for 3100.
Those components will need room and lots of air, best get a CM 690.

I have a MSI board with crossfire etc. But the FPS on games are the same if i use my ATI card on it or on my brothers N force which was quite cheaper.

The durability however is unquestionable. The nforce has been in warranty twice. I agree with firebender. Considering all that you are putting in, why not get a good mobo.

CASING is not that important. Get an elite. Your GPU is dual slot cooled so no worries there. The 120mm exhaust plus the PSU exhaust will be enough.

With the money left over, you could buy a DVD RW which you seem to have forgotten.

I totally agree with Firebender here at least do some justice, with all that awesome config P5KPL-VM no way at all at least Go with the P5Q-L or P5Q-E if Possible Mobo matters really much as said before it allows you to expand the performance in Game and Hardware manipulation to the best of their Abilities.

A little Yet understandable Example here : With This Processor and all using the P5KPL-VM You are forcing A camel to Sit in a RickShaw.(Ount Ko RikShaw main betha rahey ho agar aisi karoge)

Do NOT buy a simple casing unless you wanna end up with either yuor vga or your proceesor being hetaed up....
CM 690 will cost you aout 6000 and you can obviously extend your budget that much..
