Sorry guys for double post. I have re-newed like recommended. Ok so, I am thinking of buying parts and making a custom built gaming rig. This is where I am so far with this project: http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/366/ocuki7.jpg.

Note: An extra HDD has been added (2 instead of 1) unlike my old basket.

What do you think?
Feedback and recommendations would be appreciated...

Thanks,
Jack.

Fairly good

, only thing would you could drop down on PSU if your not thinking about running crossfire or SLI.

The Corsair 620w is good or the 650w on this weeks special.

erm i think the extra 120mm fan if you are paying that much consider Scythe S-FLEX or a noctua

You don't need a 850W PSU for that rig. A good 5-600W would suffice. With that saved money you can get a better motherboard (strongly advise this).

As far as I know the Corsair 850W has a bigger fan and less noisy than the 750 and 650. It will be the one i'm getting for my i7 build

Nicely done Kenny.

Also, do you think that I could have a 640GB HDD and maybe a 160GB one to bring the price down? or something a bit higher...
