Good luck with the build! Everything looks good. If you need any insight on overclocking the e5200 just ask.

@r9

e5200 will be just fine on that board. It's basically same thing you are running only differences it's mATX with onboard video.
If the chipsets have the same specs does not mean that it will have the same OC options in the bios.
I`m not familiar with that Gigabyte mobo if it has all the OC of my P43 board +1 here.
I had MSI P31 neo-f MSI P45 neo3-fr MSI P7N Platinum and J&W P35 pro and the current one MSI P43 neo-f. The P43 hands down it is the best board of all on OC point of view. The BEST bios other boards can`t compare. All the combinations in BIOS work multi/fsb/memory ratio which I can`t say for above boards.
And another thing that I just remembered about some Gigabyte matx boards that have x4 PCIE instead of X16 PCIE not because of chipset limitation but because Gigabyte figured that it cheaper to build X4.
