New Computer

So I have just ordered the parts for my new computer. Been wanting it for awhile but have only just managed to get the money together for it.
 
I'll get the tedious part out the way and list my components:
 
Case: Coolermaster Sileo 500
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-P55M-UD2 iP55  
Processor: Intel Core i5 750 2.66GHz Socket LGA1156 8MB L3 Cache  
RAM: 2gb Ddr3 1600mhz Hyperx Memory 
Graphics Card: Zotac GTX260 192 Core synergy edition 896MB DDR3 
Harddrive: Seagate ST3500418AS 500GB Hard Drive SATAII 7200rpm 16MB Cache 
PSU: OCZ Stealth XStream 600W
 
It's not completely state of the art but it should play everything on the market at the moment and for the foreseeable future after over-clocking. Anyway, the reason I am posting this (other than showing off) is because this is the first computer I've built and I was after some tips from the experienced GB community. I'm not really after build tips but more starting my new computer up tips.
 
For example, I remember seeing a quality website posted on GIzmodo where you just ticked the programs you wanted it to download and then it would do them all at once. I cannot for the life of me remember what it is called and if anyone knows that would be grand. 
 
Anyway, like I said, feel free to post tips or anything that you think might be of help and I'll let you know when my computer is up and running.
