I guess this is my first active topic.
Just got back, posting in Hello's forum shortly.
First thing I did was upgrade my computer to this:

Intel® Core™ i7-2600K Processor (8M Cache, 3.40 GHz)
8GB DDR3 RAM
Gigabyte GA-Z68XP-UD4 Motherboard
GeForce GTX 570 GPU Graphics Card
HyperX SSD Drive (High-speed SATA Rev. 3.0 (6 Gb/s) transfer speeds) in addition to my other hard drives which come to 4TB
Thermaltake TR2 Bronze 800W Power Supply
Welland EZStor ME-220PN Tool-free HDD Rack
22x Super-Multi DVD Rewriter
2x Aerocool Shark Fan 140mm
Aerocool BX-500 EVIL BLACK EDITION Gaming Case
Windows 7 (64-bit) - I previously had 32-bit and the new hardware goes to waste with 32-bit, therefore... RE-INSTALLING EVERYTHING! FML!
Casecom 3.5" 1x 20 Pin 2x USB 3.0 Connector to 2x SATA 16pin Connector
Serial ATA (SATA) Power Y (Splitter) Cable 4-15 PIN 150MM

Computers... Dididoitrite?
EDI: Now I can play rs gud ya?

Quite a nice rig tbh. Not too sure about your PSU though. My friend bought a 1000w Bronze PSU and only got about 750w out of it, so there not very efficient.

Yeah I'm keen to hear what Robbie thinks in particular.

Looks perfectly fine to me. A 500-600W quality PSU would be fine for this rig.

And if you have a PSU that won't put out rated power, then it's a bad PSU or a cheap one. The wattage rating is /output/ not input.

I am left handed, and proud of it! (Mostly)Retired from RuneScape.

Why did you buy a new PC if you are out of the country 90% of the time?  ##
