Thank you HEXUS community!
I would just like to thank you all because I've finally built my first computer and don't think I could have done it without the help that I have received from people who have been willing to answer my questions. This is the rig that I'm writing this post from now.
Case: Coolermaster ATCS 840
Power Supply: Silverstone Strider Gold 1200-G. (1200 watts)
Motherboard: ASUS P8P67 DELUXE
Processor: Intel I7-2600K
CPU Cooler: Antec Kuhler H20 920
Memory: Crucial 8GB (2x4GB) DDR3
Graphics Card: GTX 460 SuperClocked (probably be replaced by GTX 600 or HD 7000 series in mid 2012)
Storage: 120GB Kingston HyperX SSD (and soon a 2TB HDD as well)
Optical Drive: LG SuperMultiBlue BD Rewriter
Operating System: Windows 7 Ultimate (64Bit)
I think that's all.
Just one more question, when I add a HDD to my build soon, is there anything special I need to do? e.g on Windows or BIOS? The HDD is for mass storage for games etc.

Looks like a very quick computer from the spec, I hope you enjoy it :)

You should be fine just plugging it in and booting up, it'll appear on your screen almost as if you'd just plugged a flash drive into the computer.

Thanks for the reply. Yes the computer is really quick and quite an upgrade from my 2004 Windows XP Dell Dimension. I bought a 1TB WD Caviar Black HDD from Amazon and plugged it in. Everything worked fine and after formatting and partitioning it (really easy with Win 7) I'm currently installing Battlefield 3.
