well multiplying by 1.3 cuz i guess thats what yahoo says is the current exchange ratio euros:dollars.
8800 GTS shouldnt be that much, id say 350 dollars, or 260 euros. are you sure its not a GTX?
the mobo should be 250 dollars, or 180 euros.
looking at it, it almsot all seems too over priced. if you check newegg.com for the prices, you can compare for yourself. the PSU is just about the only thing that looks like a good price.
is the place you are buying this from putting it together for you? if so are they offering some sort of warranty? just trying to figure out what you are getting for all that money. I dunno, maybe stuff is more expensive in europe.
all in all, this is a very good setup. for the RAM i would try to get a reputable brand like corsair, g.skill or OCZ. The 6000+ is nice but an alternative would be a brisbane core.
Summary: components = nice pick. price = seems way too steep.

Well as the last guy said, all very overpriced when compared to what you could get here in America, but stuff in Europe tends to be more expensive anyway, so not too bad.

You could try comparing it with this one w/c costs less:

You could opt to go for 8800GTX, stick to your 22" LCD and 650watter and maybe still spend less.
