I am doing a build for a friend and money is tight. Is all this ok? Remember I am in Australia so this is in Australian money.

CPU E6300 $186.00
RAM 2gb OCZ 667 $95.00
GPU 256mb 8600gts $239.00
MOBO ASUS P5VD2-VM $72.00
HDD Western Digital 320gb Sata Drive $99.00
PSU Thermaltake 430w $39.00
$730.00 Total

Looks good enough, do you have a link to the website you're buying from?

Few things though. I don't know if 430W will be enough. If you can find one for cheap, I'd try for 500W.
OS?
Optical Drives?

I agree. You might wanna shoot for 500 or even 550-600 watts. You could try Hiper or Enermax :p.

Also, I recommend an LG optical drive. Solidly built, good performance :).
