Looks a good un Kev - the only thing I would have added was an SSD for your OS (mine has CUP on it too) - check my specs on my signature. I built mine in March - believe me you wont be disappointed with IL2 or FSX for that matter, the difference from my old rig is simply awesome!! I stuck with Windows 7 64bit, i'm not keen on 8.1. Have fun
