You didn't list any CD/DVD drive, HDD (hard drive), or aftermarket cpu cooling.
The antec, coolermaster, seasonic, and corsair power supplies you listed are all fine.

I would post stuff lile that, but I am too lazy :p
Thanks, I'll with the the corsair gs600 pus then
will I need an aftermarket cooler if I am not planning to over clock right now? My main concern right now if skyward sword at full 1080p which I was told should run fine without over clocking?
Also will any DVD reader do? And I have a western digital 500gb 7200 drive lying around Sata will that be fine? And of course 64but windows 7?
And for Bluetooth adapter the ASUS one?
Thanks!

Just reuse that and you'll be fine.

Yes.

Any bluetooth adapter will do.

You'll only need it if you're overclocking.

Yes it probably will. Although if you're using efb to ram in the latest builds you might need to overclock.
As for your concerns with Skyward Sword.
I've recently tried it on 3.0-229 motionplus build and I had to drop down the internal resolution to x3 to get 30fps max.
I haven't really played or gotten anywhere, I was just walking around a bit in the Skyloft, and my FPS was averaging on 30fps.
Sometimes it slows down to 26fps for a sec then gets back up to 30.
So from what I've experienced, you might have to overclock it a little if you want stable FPS.
I'm not sure how any other builds handle it (ie the 7714 build).

A lot faster. The most recent builds are really slow for some reason.
Thanks, whats a decent cooler to get on a budget for the CPU for overclocking purposes if i need it? And will i need it to run skyward sword at 1080p on a 2500k at stock levels? Also is thermal compound a necessity with a aftermarket cpu fan?
So far i have purchased:
MOBO - Asrock Z68 Pro3-M
RAM - 8GB G.Skill Ripjaws-X 1333
PSU: Corsair GS-600
Case: Fractal Design Define Mini
VIDEO CARD: Powercolor HD 6870
HDD: Western Digitial 500GB (Sata 3gbps)
....2500k was out of stock so purchasing from another supplier, than all i need is a standard DVD reader and i'm set i assume and a bluetooth adapter and i should be set?
Good that you swapped the mobo for a micro-atx form factor. I was afraid you might miss it
The Hyper 212+ is a good budget cooler, you'll have to get some thermal paste aswell.
Well, there's a
Emulated Motionplus build floating around here, you can try Skyward Sword out there.
But it's still a bit difficult to control.
If you want to use a physical wiimote, yes, you'll need a bluetooth adapter AND sensorbar.
