Looks good to me. The HSF should work fine. However, I'd would spend the extra $20 for lifetime warranty and a bundled game:
BFG GTX285 w/ COD:WAW - $380

Oh and make sure that you have a 64bit OS in order to use more than 3.5GB of RAM.
 
Ugh crappy gagtastic game.
1. GTX280 or GTX295 or bust. Price premium of the 285 still isn't worth it over the GTX280.

Guess we're just giving up on yelling at every new poster to read the sticky eh?
