Spec me a £1500 rig :D

If you got £1500 why not get a pre built rig, something like this:

http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=FS-132-OE&groupid=43&catid=1270&subcat=

Also not to mention you can ask them to modify it a bit, 5870 for the GTX480 and so on...

This, OCuk rigs are properly nice, pre-overclocked and well constructed with cable management and the whole works done for you. With the money spare, you could ask them to swap the 480 for a 5970, will probably set you back another 80-90 quid at max and get you a much faster card

Or with the spare, add windows 7 and add an SSD :D
